Tri-Monitor Setup :: Wrong Loading Screen

Hi I am new here (found the website due to that Musical Maxtor thread that has been around for some time now).

I currently have a tri-monitor setup (best thing I have ever done) running two 8800GT's. I'm really picky and want everything to look perfect. I'm also using UltraMon.

Here's my problem: When I start the computer, the Windows Loading screen loads on my middle screen which is what I want. Once that has finished, then the login screen comes up on my right hand side monitor. I want the login screen to come up on the middle monitor, the same one that windows was originally loading up on.

Secondly, im using ultramon, and was wanting to know whether it was possible to have the system tray icons on my right hand screen toolbar and my start menu on my far left toolbar...in order to make it look as though I have one massive toolbar.

This is my current setup: http://i27.tinypic.com/112a32d.jpg

Sorry its so small...but I couldn't find a upload site that didn't re-size my images! I didn't realize that there was a limit. But if you look close enough, you'll understand what I mean (I hope!).

Btw, that little circle thing in my middle screen, is the start menu button.

Cheers,

David

it sounds to me like windows is setting the right monitor as primary not the middle one...

go to control panel....display.....settings tab.....make sure that in the list the name of your middle monitor is set to primary not the one on the right.....

hope this helps....
