dual display annoyance

Recommended Posts

My machine runs vista ultimate 32-bit, nVidia GeForce 8400GS (a low-end card but fits my need) hooked to two displays, a Lenovo L192 wide screen using VGA cable and an HDTV using DVI2HDMI cable. The lenovo is physically on the right side, and is the designated primary monitor, and I keep both running at 1440x900. However, after a few recent video driver updates, vista keeps resetting the configuration upon reboot. It not only resets the monitors' arrangement (left and right), but also resets the the HDTV's resolution to 1080p.

 

I googled for solutions. Some suggested that it is caused by TMM under Windows Task Scheduler. I disabled TMM from running, but the problem is still here. Others suggested that if vista identifies a display as a generic display, it resets the settings each time. I am only able to get the proper driver for L192, but not for the HDTV.

 

Just wondering if anyone has run into a similar situation, and know of a working solution? Thanks in advance.
