Forums -> Multiple monitors -> WIndows 7 turning off video output on monitor power off
Tom   2009-12-14 02:13
I run three 24" LCDs @ 1920x1200 over DVI off of 2 NVIDIA cards. I recently switched to Windows 7 from XP. Now, whenever I turn off my monitors, Windows cuts the video output to the non-primary monitors and reduces the desktop down to just the primary monitor. All windows and desktop icons goto the primary, which really @$&%$*%&@ me off to have to move them all back to the other monitors every time I come back to the computer. My only solution so far is to set power save on the monitors to 5 mins and just never turn them off, but this is a rediculous and wasteful workaround and even it doesn't work sometimes. Any thoughts?
