Bad context menu on secondary monitor


Guest XOPS

Recommended Posts

I have a Dell M90 w/ Quadro FX 1500M, Nforce 84.29. I am using a D-dock docking station and dual flat panel monitors. I use Nview and select the "Dualview" option.

Right clicking on the secondary monitor yields context menus which are wrong, placed off to the side or just missing. In some programs (IE6, for example), the pointer is not aligned with the mouse hot-spot.

I am sure that I am just missing a setting some where but this is really frustrating. Drag-and-drop won't work properly, right-click doesn't generate the copy option on the secondary monitor. I am tired of dragging windows to the primary monitior just so I can right-click.

I would really appreciate any ideas anyone may have.

Thanks -

It's just luck, I know.

I installed 91.36 using a modded ,INF and got black screens. I booted in safe mode, rolled back to "last known good" and everything is OK. Although it rolled back to the Dell 8.4.2.9 driver, it did keep ALL the goodies and power tools that the modded INF makes available. This makes the "Horizontal Span" option available which solves my problem. The problem still exists in "Dualview" but I don't care anymore about that.

Thanks to everyone who looked and wondered. If it were not for this site I wouldn't have all the goodies enabled to do the workaround.
