Windows 10: multiple monitors

I am at my wits end with the behavior of my system in the multiple monitor mode. NOTHING follows the same procedure when two monitors are connected. When the screen saver starts, the image skews towards the other monitor. The monitor that's chosen as the "main" monitor, has only a small portion of the image on the main screen. At other times, the windows open on the system, are also skewed off the screen. There is no using the windows unless I start task manager by invoking the Ctrl+Alt+Delete, and that only some times. I am extremely disgusted with this issue.


There is still the issue of identifying the monitors. The "main" monitor is still the No. 2 monitor in settings. YUK!!!

• What changes did you make in the BIOS? As making the changes in the BIOS is only recommended by Microsoft if done by the manufacturer.
  

• How are you connecting to the 2nd monitor?

I suggest you to follow the steps from this article below:
