2 Monitors

danbanger · 26-May-04, 11:45 PM

I have dual monitors and I want to have my "main" monitor on the right side. I can't figure out how if I have my monitor on the right to get it so the mouse will go onto the "left or secondary monitor" from moving my mouse from [ SECONDARY <---- Main] Because the mouse just stops if I try to move to the other monitor from the left side. So if I want to move it to the secondary monitor I would have to move my mouse to the right side of the main screen.

Sorry if you can't understand tthis I am sort of in a hurry. If you need me to clarify some things please say something thanks.

in the display properties Settings tab where you set which monitor is primary, secondary, extend desktop etc., you can drag the second monitor wherever you damn well please
