issue with duel monitors

[tremmor]

Ok........i'll explain the best i can. im running two syncmaster 24" monitors with xp pro. i had an issue this morning with the computer not starting up. decided to take it back to the day before. same issue. isolated to the video card and reseated. then it worked. Now before, my left monitor was the active one and i could easily just move the mouse to the right to access the monitor. NOW with the left monitor active i cannot move the mouse to the right to access the left monitor. i have to move the mouse to the left to access the right monitor.

i know i can switch the monitors and it would be ok. I want to know what setting im i missing to have corrected this in the 1st place.

When you reseated the cards, did you switch the DVI cables out? Like, put the left monitor into the right monitor port?

Just go into desktop rightclick>properties>appearance? (The furthest right tab) and you will see a diagram with two monitors on it. Grab one of the monitors on the diagram and move it over to the correct side and apply! Easy peezy.
