How do I set 2nd monitor as primary
Hi folks! I don't know if I'm posting on the right forums. I thought this might be the right one because this is affecting my 3D experience, but if it's wrong please feel free to move the thread to whereever it belongs. My problem: My setup was: 1. BenQ XL2420T 2. Plasma TV Everything worked fine. Now I changed the BenQ for the 27" model and now the Plasma is encountered as the 1. display in the drivers. Even though I clone the image it still affects me when playing 3D on the monitor. I can't use the 120Hz of the monitor because it's limited to 60Hz because of the cloning image (note that the TV is off). Also I cant play 3D content because I only can choose 3D Vision discover. The only workaround is to plug out the HDMI cable to the TV, so that the BenQ becomes primary and only monitor. I searched everywhere, but hell, how can I change the BenQ to be the primary one in the drivers? When the old BenQ was the primary device I could turn off the TV and the system automatically switched settings to 120Hz, 1 monitor (the BenQ) only. It was perfect. But now with plugging out the cable it's a desaster and I can't find any solution to this. Not in the Nvidia drivers and not in windows 7 itsself. If you understand my problem, please help. Thanks

My problem:

My setup was:
1. BenQ XL2420T
2. Plasma TV

Everything worked fine.

Now I changed the BenQ for the 27" model and now the Plasma is encountered as the 1. display in the drivers. Even though I clone the image it still affects me when playing 3D on the monitor.

Can you go to this page in the NVidia Control Panel? [img]http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/3319/bild1cn3.jpg[/img] If so, you can right click on the BenQ monitor and choose Make Primary.
