Re: [H] dumb question
Either disable autodetect in the video driver and/or look into if the monitor is handling PM (APM? DPMI? where are we these days?) properly. Only time I hit the moving thing is if I RDP in which jams my 2 desktops into 1 leaves it that when when I disconnect. Come to think of it I should track down a fences like app to auto-move them back...

Re: [H] dumb question
I couldn't work with less than 2 monitors, and there is a good chance I'm moving to three or four soon with the massive IPS price drop coming.
