    Second monitor has black background after logging in


    After I log into windows my second monitor has no background until I open the start menu, then it will show the normal wallpaper. I fixed it before by just fresh installing windows but I don't want to do it again. I've reinstalled my drivers, unplugged both monitors, and tried a different wallpaper, nothing fixes it apart from the fresh install. Anyone else experience this?
