Its so simple : Just open Screen Resolution window from Control Panel from where you set multiple monitors.
You are done!! In reply to Ankit K Jain's post on July 2, I had the same issue with three monitors. Couldn't get them to allow me to swipe to the right and to the left. Had to swipe to the left, through the second monitor, to get to the third monitor which was on the right.
Didn't match my screen. Incorrect instructions. Too technical. Not enough information. Not enough pictures. Any additional feedback? Submit feedback. Thank you for your feedback! Dual Monitor Cables Plug the power cords into your power strip. Do the same for the second monitor. Right click anywhere on the desktop, click screen resolution.
Click on the display you want to turn off. Click apply. Spent several hours messing with the cables, cards, etc. Pulled out pin 12, rebooted, works fine now! For years the port 3 was also win xp x64 machine, everything worked like a charm. I upgraded one machine to windows 7 64 as I had a software upgrade in my studio requiring it. Quite annoying. This is an old issue still be reported for years and crossing to may different traditional KVM switches which does not support UN-interrupted feeding of connected display's EDID to each of the connected system to KVM switch.
Nice try. There's a third way which is cheaper, easier and cleaner than the two you mentioned. Removing pin 12 from a cheap VGA male-female adapter or cable works and is mentioned above. Don't have an adapter? Simply search for 'vga female male'.
I bought three on Amazon just in case I messed up one but I got it on the first try. Removing the pin is a piece of cake. I did it in two minutes with a pair of medium sized scissors - I couldn't find my needle nose pliers but it didn't matter because the pin is not held in well at all.
I attached the adapter to the output of the KVM going to my Win 7 Enterprise machine and I didn't even have to reboot. All I did was click on detect in the screen resolution settings of display, and it found the monitor non-plug and play. Of course, this problem stems from a lack of will, not a lack of ability, which is sad. Someone in upper management is being a bit short sighted because fixing these small annoying problems, even if it costs a few million dollars would help sell more products in the long run.
This fix would have been perfect for a service pack, but oh well, whatever. I didn't have any problems with my KVM and desktop until a recent "update" I am only using a single monitor so this shouldn't be too difficult That behavior is not useful If the monitor is an unknown which was plugged in then the behavior should remember that setting until it changes This is a "feature" that solves a "problem" that didn't need to get "fixed" What was the reasoning?
Perhaps this is different from the original post In that case what to do with the "space" that is connected then disconnected? This issue must be something very complicated. I have 3 Dell desktops. All 3 are the same model with Win7 and all have dual output video cards. Only one of the 3 desktops will display on both monitors both monitors are the same model as well. The other 2 won't recognize the second monitor. Office Office Exchange Server.

The worst part of this problem is that when it randomly throws my desktop to my 2nd monitor and I switch back to my dual monitor box I have to go through the windows menus and re-detect all monitors to get my 1st monitor back. Not only that but because of all this monitor switching, all my apps have to be moved back to where they were originally.
This is making work via KVM switch nearly impossible. I've upgraded to the latest Nvidia drivers which are dated in mid-July.
Just leave it be like it used to function in XP. Thursday, August 20, PM. I have this same problem - when the KVM switches a monitor from the Windows 7 machine, Win7 reorganizes the desktop as if the monitor is no longer connected which, technically, is correct. The problem is that it doesn't put it back the way it was when the monitor is connected again.
I can see where this would be handy if you disconnect a monitor, and are still using the computer on the remaining monitors, but as mdorais said, it makes the KVM a nightmare.
It would be great if this "feature" could be turned off. Friday, August 21, PM. Wednesday, September 2, PM. Thursday, September 3, PM. Me too! I fix mine. Then your screen will automatically come back with the KVM switch. Wednesday, September 23, PM. Try to be more descriptive on your issue. It's a lot easier to figureout what is really going on rather than assuming what you mean.
I notice that if I use my XP machine a host machine to run Linux and Windows server virtual machines to hone my elite IT skills I can dream right. Swtiching to my 7 machine over my KVM switch. It changes to a zoomed in view with only partial of the desktop is visible. Refresh Monitor fixes the minor issue. I know that Vista and 7 have the ability to adjust the desktop to match the screen size on LCD monitors.
XP just streches it. This ajusting is a part of aero. To solve the issue.
