Re: Multi-Monitor Questions

Vista crashes me and requires a reboot about 10% of what XP used to (and I
install/uninstall lots of stuff on it).

My major beef is after every "patch" the following happens EVERY time:

1. User Account Control gets re-enabled
2. All the icons from my right (secondary) monitor move to the left
(primary) monitor.
3. Related to 2 above if the right monitor icon getting moved AND it's in
the same place relatively to the top/left of an icon already on the left
monitor, then it seems to get placed at semi-random places.
4. ANY non-MS IE browser shortcut on my desktip gets DELETED.

I don't use Vista, but I think there may be a limitation in Vista -- at
least when using Aero -- that all the adapters must use the same video
driver so when using multiple cards they may need to be the same
manufacturer. I've used mixed manufacturers just fine under XP Pro.

There's another reason to hate Vista...
If I *ever* run it, it will only be in a virtual PC on my XP Pro system.
