Installed new drivers, cannot set focus display!?
I installed the latest 257.15 drivers from the 1.27 CD. However, Nvidia's control panel thinks that my secondary display should be the focus display. I want my primary display to be both my focus display and my primary display. I cannot find any button or setting that makes this happen! In the "Set multi-GPU and Physx configuration" tab there are a statement that says: "Go to 'Set up multiple displays' and set focus display as the main display". But nor does the tab 'Set up multiple displays" allow me to change the focus settings either. All I can change is which monitor should be the primary one.

Please do you guys have a solution?

Edit: I think I did find a solution. I made the secondary display my main display. And then I made the primary display my main display, then the focus followed suit and now my primary display are both my main display and focus display! How ultra nooooobish of Nvidia.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
This should be one of those "stick ups" things.

Na-na-neeeeecro bump! I got this message after clean reinstall of windows 10 threshold 2 (build 10586) today, so I thought I'd pull this back up to the top for others having the same issue.
