Hey - As you can see I am running dual monitors on my pc but I need some help
 
Every time I boot up, I have to reset the resolution on one and move it's placement
 
And ideas on how to make windows remember the settings for the second monitor??
 
Here's what I want it to be
Main = Right side @1280x1024
Secondary = Left Side @1024x768
 
And it boots like so
Main = Left side @1280x1024
Secondary = right side@1280x1024
 
Thanks
And I hope this is the right place for this question

hey there buddy, ok.  first off, what kinda vid card do you have?
 
ATI or Nvidia.
 
I have a dual monitor setup, and this is what i have
 
Dell 22'' widescreen (main)  
LG 19'' (Secondary)
 
I have an Nvidia 8800 GTS 640 mb card
 
now.  I connected my 22'' first, set it up the way of the resolution i want.
 
then i shut down
 
then as its shut down, i connected my LG  
 
turned the computer on, and went into my nvidia control panel
 
i had the control panel set them as individual monitors.
 
and yes you can set them to the resolutions you want.
 
and then when im done, i restarted.  and as you said your main turns on first, then my 2nd
 
hope that helps.. with ATI i dont have an ATI card, but im sure if someone does, they can help you set up the dual monitor.
