Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Unlocking XP workstation disables secondary monitor

Recentely, when I lock my XP workstation, and then unlock it, UltraMon is disabling my secondary monitor. In order to re-enable it, I have to "enable secondary" 2 times to get it back.

When I re-enable the 2nd display, the windows that were on that display still remain on the primary display.

It started doing this a few weeks ago. I can't tie the beginning of this issue to anything in particular (installation of MS Hotfixes or any other 3rd party software).

Here's the hardware info:
Dell Latitude D600, WinXP Pro

2 monitors
Current desktop: 2424x1050 (0,0 - 2424,1050)

Monitor 1 - Plug and Play Monitor (primary):
Settings: 1400x1050, 32-bit color, 60 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 0,0 - 1400,1050. Workspace: 0,0 - 1400,1022
Video card: MOBILITY RADEON 9000
Device: \\.\DISPLAY1\Monitor1

Monitor 2 - Plug and Play Monitor (removable):
Settings: 1024x768, 32-bit color, 60 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 1400,0 - 2424,768. Workspace: 1400,0 - 2424,738
Video card: MOBILITY RADEON 9000
Device: \\.\DISPLAY2\Monitor3

That's most likely due to something else, maybe a video card driver issue. My guess would be that you'll see the same issue without UltraMon installed.
