  1. Windows 10 Multi Monitor Help.;


    Hi all,

    Recently I got 2 new monitors and have just connected them up. I go to the settings to set them both up however my main monitor is number 2. Although it is set as my main monitor, due to my GPU, all applications open up on my left monitor. Can I change the numbers in my settings so that the one in front of me is number 1 to save hours of setting changes. Thanks.

    Windows 10 KB3213986 Update Cripples Multi-monitor Gaming

    The recent Cumulative Update for Windows 10 (KB3213986) cripples multi-monitor gaming, looking at the way Microsoft worded its "known issues" text. After the update is applied, users with multi-monitor setups could experience screen stuttering or clipped screens when running 3D apps on machines with more than one monitor. The only workaround Microsoft suggests for now entails running your 3D apps in non-fullscreen modes, such as windowed-maximized (pseudo-fullscreen) or windowed modes. Microsoft also goes as far as to suggest that people with multi-monitors could try starting their 3D apps with just one monitor connected.

    "Users may experience delayed or clipped screens while running 3D rendering apps (such as games) on systems with more than one monitor," the change-log for the KB3213986 update reads. "To work around this issue please consider the following options: 1. Running the application in Windows mode (not full screen), or 2. Starting the application with only one monitor connected," it adds. The update effectively cripples multi-monitor gaming, using technologies such as AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA 3D Vision Surround.

    Windows 10 KB3213986 Update Cripples Multi-monitor Gaming

    This should be enough to get the conspiracy theorists suggesting that Microsoft is intentionally crippling multi-monitor support in fullscreen mode since games sold on the Microsoft Store all work in the pseudo-fullscreen mode...

    Or it could just be an idiotic bug that will be fixed in time.

    Windows 10 Multi Monitors in remote desktop

    It would appear that this is the issue. However I find it odd that when I had windows 7 pro I could remote connect to a windows 7 enterprise computer and I got multi-monitor support. But when I have windows 10 pro (where multi-monitors is supported), I do
    not get multi monitor support.

    It doesn't matter though, I have since upgraded the other computer to windows 10 pro so I have multi monitor support.
