I have a Dell monitor and a HDTV (720) connected to my Windows 10 computer.
Dell is horizontal - DVI
HDTV is vertical - HDMI
When I turn on the computer and monitor is ON, Windows sees it as Display 1. Unfortunately when I turn on the TV, Windows assigns #1 to TV!!!! Rather than monitor, which is really infuriating . Even though my monitor is set as the "Main Display" When I try to change to clone displays Windows takes orders from the HDTV and tries to switch view on My main display from horizontal to vertical instead of forcing the TV to display horizontally on vertical screen.
I know it might seem very odd, but I need this for my MAME dual screen setup. It used to work correctly on Windows 7 and even on Windows 10 , but at some point something got messed up.
On top of that MAME won't load correctly. All versions hang when launched. Also because of the wrong order MAME was showing settings screen on wrong monitor when launched. All because of the wrong order. And I know it's not MAME but Windows, because MAME works just fine when only one screen is turned on. HDTV is mounted vertically, but I want it to display horizontally on Vertical panel in cloned mode. Mame can display both screens that way. On the Horizontal I can have game displayed horizontally and then on the vertical it will clone the same display but horizontally. So clearly it can be done and handled, just POS Windows refuses to do it right.
What can I do? All I find is how to change the monitor I want to be the "Main Display" while I need the main display to be #1 not #2 and that I cannot change!
How does Windows allowing to take priority on 720 display!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!? It's absolutely ridiculous!
I have so many issues with displays and how Windows handles it it's not funny! Even my main computer I have 2 monitors, VR and HDTV connected and when I turn TV on it turns off VR and monitors for a moment and then jumbles applications and throws them all over the displays and of course COMPLETELY rearranges order of the displays. Again all of a sudden my #1 is no longer number 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM SO ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
