Have added a 2nd display to my 8800GT, and now when i turn on my PC the whole startup process is shown on the 2nd display and not the 1st display, only when it shows the Vista Logo In screen does it show anything on display 1. How do i change this so it shows the startup process on display 1??
 
what you mean the DVI ports? But if i do that then ill get the startup on monitor 1 and then get the login screen and windows on monitor 2?
 
If you look carefully on the back of the gfx card near the ports they are labelled 1 and 2 (my Leadtek one does anyway), I'm guessing your original monitor was plugged into port 2 with nothing in 1 so it defaulted to that before windows, but now there is one in 1 it goes to that first. Just swap them around. After that you can set which one is the main monitor in windows.
