I'm hoping that UltraMon might be the solution to a longstanding problem, but I thought I might ask before I try.
With my Vista Home Premium SP 1, 64 bit OS, Gigabyte GA-X48 mobo, Radeon HD4670 GPU, 8 gigs of ram, 24 inch primary monitor and 22 inch secondary monitor: upon re-boot, the secondary monitor becomes disabled. Using the latest Catalyst driver package, (as well as multiple previous ones), I can enable the second monitor, but only by a complicated process, plus some trial and error. I have to reduce the resolution on the primary monitor way down, then enable the second as a clone, then change it to an extended desktop, then reset both monitors to their native resolutions (in the right order and just the right resolutions on the way!). It's a pain! But otherwise the system is very stable. Before I risk that stability, is there a good possibility that installing UltraMon will solve this issue?
I would guess that I should uninstall the Catalyst Control Center and use only the driver; suspect that CCC is at least part of the problem.
Any help *greatly* appreciated!

Might be worth a try, but this sounds like a display driver issue, if you can't re-enable the monitor via Control Panel > Personalization > Display Settings, my guess would be that it also won't work via UltraMon.

Thanks Christian!
If the frustration factor gets any higher, I think I may try. :-)
