  1. Triple Monitor Display Switch Shortcuts


    This is my first post so I'm hopeful I can explain my situation well. If it can't be solved, that's life.

    My setup is as follows on a GeForce 960 video card:

    2 24" monitors connected via DVI identified as monitors "2" and "3"
    1 television connected via HDMI identified as monitor "1"

    I'm aware that the ports that you use for each monitor determines how Windows identifies them (I believe all of my problems would be solved if Windows allowed you to change these numbers).

    When you hit the shortcut win+p, it brings up the quick display switcher.

    Selecting 'PC screen only' will cause the desktop to switch to display 1, the television. Even if a monitor is set as my "main display" choosing this shortcut chooses a new set of display options that makes the HDMI connected TV the main display and turns off the other displays.

    Selecting '2nd screen only' will turn on the monitors (display 2 and 3). With some fiddling inside the nVidia control panel I believe I've gotten it to turn on just display 2.

    The problem is, when I hit 'Extend' it turns on display 1, the television, and one other display. I can't change this behavior, display 1 seems to always be included when you select 'Extend'. I'd like for 'Extend' to turn on the two monitors, displays 2 and 3. Ideally I'd like for 'PC Screen Only' to turn on just a single monitor, but I can live with having to choose 'Second Screen' to do that.

  3. How do i stop desktops changing when i power of a monitor?

    Hi

    Ill reword it for you.

    I have two computers A and B both connected to my TV.

    Computer B also has a further two monitors connected as I run it in a triple screen configuration.

    At times I need to switch to Computer A on the TV then switch back to Computer B just by changing channels

    When I do this on Computer B it changes all the desktops as the TV is no longer conected, this is what i dont want it to do, I want it to leave everythign as is.

    I have disabled Auto detec in the Regestry but that made no change. Changing what monitor is the prmary screen makes no change either.

    PC B is connected to the TV via HDMI, and the monitors via Display port and DVI

    PC A is connected to the TV via HDMI
