Upon restarting, the old monitor now has colour, but the new main monitor still doesn't.Īnd that's my problem. I finally did quit ultramon and restarted the PC. I fiddled around with deleting some random processes using the task manager and an error popped up when I tried ending the UltraMon task. I restarted the PC, only to find that nothing changed. Recently, I came back to shake my monitors out of sleep to find BOTH my monitors grayscale. Nothing I did would revert it back to coloured status except for restarting the entire PC. This woke it up.Ģ) The old monitor's display would become monochrome, grayscale, have no colour, etc. When I got back to it, a few things could happen:ġ) The new monitor wouldn't wake up out of sleep mode: I solved this issue by going to display settings using the old monitor and setting the "main monitor" to the old monitor and then back to the new monitor. Whenever I left the computer for a long period of time, it would enter low power mode. Still works fine, with a few glitches however now. Note: Ultramon only has a beta version for Vista, which is what I'm running. I got UltraMon and DisplayFusion (Now that I think about it, UltraMon does what DisplayFusion does and more, but at the time I didn't know that). I also got 2 programs to help me use my dual monitor setup. Went to the settings and set my new monitor to the right of the old one along with making it the main monitor. Hooked all the monitors up, and started up the PC. My graphics card is an Nvidia GEForce 9500 GT.

So I looked at a couple forums to get me started, switched off the PC, connected the new monitor via an HDMI - HDMI connection and the old monitor using the same old VGA - VGA connection. I recently got a new monitor (LG W2261VP - Widescreen Full HD 21.5 inch) and decided to connect BOTH my monitors to the PC, old and new. One tells you exactly everything that I've done and the other is a summary of my problem. Ok, because I've fiddled quite a bit and I'm giving you all the details I've split this post into two sections.
