I'm trying to enable the screen saver on Monitor 1 and not have any screen saver on Monitor 2.

Currently Monitor 1 shows the screen saver just fine, but the 2nd monitor has a black screen. I can't figure out how to disable the screen saver on Monitor 2.

Thank you for the help.

UltraMon doesn't support this, what you could do is disable the screen saver completely, then use the UltraMon Screen Saver Player add-on to run a screen saver only on the primary monitor manually.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Do I need to run this software every time I turn off the computer?

It seems that the settings aren't stored in Ultramon. Is this the case?

You'll need to start the UltraMon Screen Saver Player manually, but you can specify the screen saver that should be used, and the monitor on which you want to run the screen saver, via arguments to the application. To do this create a shortcut to ScrPlayer.exe, then add the screen saver and monitor number to the target field (under properties for the shortcut), like this for example:

C:\Temp\ScrPlayer.exe "C:\Windows\system32\Mystify.scr" 2

This will launch the screen saver player on monitor 2 (fullscreen) with the Mystify screen saver.
