Run sysprep on it after you've done whatever you want to it.

[H] Screwed up multi monitors

2019-07-16 Thread Winterlight
I use three monitors with Windows 10 Pro on a PC with a Nvidia 1070. 
I run Display Fusion Pro to help manage the monitors. I recently 
purchased three large = a 32 inch and two 28 inch DELL 4K monitors. I 
hooked them up using mini DisplayPorts. The 32 in the center and the 
identical 28s on the right and left side. After I did that everything 
went to hell. Windows seem to move where they want, When power save 
comes on all the windows would move to monitor 1 and I would have to 
manually put them back upon wake. When I shut them down and turned 
them on in the morning everything was a mess. Desktop icons, window 
postilions, task bars, everything. It has gotton to the point where 
at the end of the day I close all the windows, and save icon 
positions which is not how I want it to behave.


I was able to mitigate some of this with the help of Display Fusion 
support by window position saving but it only kind of works. The 
whole experience sucks given that I these three monitors were not 
cheap. Apparently it is a known Win10 issue...from Display Fusion support>>>


The scrambling is likely happening because the 4K monitor is using a 
DisplayPort connection. For some reason, when DisplayPort monitors 
sleep, or power off, they get disconnected from Windows, so Windows 
then forces all of the windows over to other monitors. Disabling 
monitor sleep will prevent it from happening, but that's not ideal in 
all cases for sure.


I have been screwing with this problem for a while and I can't 
determine if Windows 10 or Nvidia drivers or both are at fault. 
Anybody else seeing  this?

A friend of mine asked me to check over and wipe a old HP laptop so 
he can give it to a student in need. He also asked me to install 
Win10. I have a Win10 key. I want to do an install in such a way that 
when the computer is turned on it starts up like a new computer 
asking the user for a user name, configuration questions etc. How do I do that?
