I have an NEC laptop with a Geforce 6200, attached to a 19" LCD monitor. Now, it's automatically assigning the laptop monitor as primary, and the 19" as secondary, and I want to reverse this, so the 19" is the primary monitor. How can I do this? Just about every option is greyed out.
Go to display properties, click on settings, click once on monitor number 2 then right click on the same monitor then click on Primary and then click apply and ok then reboot and this should do it .....
Try UltraMon thats what I use and it allows me to stretch the desktop across three monitors but keep each monitor seperate from each other when running programs. It also allows for seperate taskbars for each monitor.

That's exactly what I just installed
Unfortunately, it didn't help. It seems it's hard coded into the graphics card that the laptp monitor has to be the primary one. not even UltraMon could change that. the extra taskbar didn't help, as the start menu was still only on one screen, and all the windows popped up on that one as well.
If your using the original drivers I would say it is something NEC programmed into the drivers . I've run nvidia since the tnt days and had dual monitor since they started them can't say I remember ever having a problem like that .
