New Win 7 install, finally working.

Decided to have the same desktop duplicated, as the monitors dont sit flush, they're at a 45 degree angle to each other. Rainmeter for clock/date.

Clicky for biggy!

Installed Windows 7 Pro yesterday - must say that I'm very impressed

Much, much better than Vista was on release in Jan 2007 (I was also an early Vista user!). Some really nice useful features and easy to setup and customise. The install was painless and fast - very impressive!

Would like to know why Print Screen doesn't capture the screen anymore though - the Snipping Tool is useful but still I found Print Screen very useful!

Guys I am using dual monitors with W7 and cant seem to keep my desktop icons on the left hand monitor. Everytime I move them and restart the PC the icons move across to the right hand (main) monitor.

I did use ultramon prior to installing W7 but was rather hoping W7 would remember my settings.

The taskbar seems to stay on the left monitor so why not the icons?

 

[ajgoodfellow]

Odd one - I have my main monitor on my right too but icons on both and it remembers the settings. What happens if you put some icons on one screen and some on the other?

I have tried what you suggested by putting icons on both desktops but after a restart it still puts them all on the main monitor on the right.
