    Multiple Monitors, Multiple Backgrounds, Windows 11 and Graphics Driver Updates


    Hi, I run three monitors on my Windows 11 desktop PC, and all three have different images as their backgrounds. However, every single time my graphics drivers update whether from Windows Update or AMD Adrenaline; seems to make no difference and be triggered by either, all three monitors reset to whatever screen 1 is using. I then have to reset the images - manually - through Personalise. A restart does not correct the issue; and this happens every time I get an update which is extra annoying at the moment as it seems to happen weekly, or more frequently; it's become part of my startup routi

  3. Windows move about on multiple monitor wake up

    Hi Gareth,

    The issue is most likely with the graphics driver. Whenever a single monitor from a multiple display setup in Windows, it will attempt to move everything from that screen onto the remaining screens. Usually, this issue should not occur when suspending, hibernating,
    or shutting down. Having said that, we suggest that you update the graphics driver by following the steps on this link:

    Update drivers in Windows 10
    .

    In case that the issue persists after following the steps on the link above, we suggest that you update the graphics driver by going to the chipset manufacturer's website.

    Let us know how it goes.
