  1. Multiple Displays on my PC


    I have 2 extended displays connected to my laptop. The laptop is #1, a Dell is #2 and an AOC is #3. All are in the correct order, BUT #2 shows up as the AOC and #3 shows up as the Dell. How do I show that #2 is indeed the Dell and same to #3?

    :)

    4. Move your mouse to the monitor that needs to be set as primary and check the box
      "Make this my main display"

    Once you make these changes, you may restart the computer and check.
