Swapping Display Identity Numbers


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

I'm in the stage where I am setting up my software. One thing that drove me nuts was the display numbering that Windows did.

Somehow my DMD monitor was set as display 1 and no matter what I tried, I couldn't change it.

 

After 2 nights of Google-ing, I finally found a solution. No doubt this will come in handy for others, so here it is:

Long story short:

 

To force Windows to configure monitors properly if the numbers aren't correct, you need to delete these two registry keys, and then add the monitors one at a time.

 

HKLM\Systems\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Configuration
HKLM\Systems\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Connectivity

 

Hope this helps!
