I'm having the issue where the Windows 8 Start Menu shows up on the secondary monitor instead of the primary.
When booting the machine the start menu appears originally on the primary screen as it should. Sometime during the course of the day the menu starts appearing on the secondary monitor instead of the primary.
What should happen/initial settings:
Primary Monitor -> Win8 Metro Interface
Second Monitor ->Blank
Starts happening after a few hours
Primary Monitor -> Blank
Second Monitor ->Win8 Metro Interface
My Settings:
Display 1 (Primary):
Resolution: 1920x1080
Multiple Displays: Extend these displays
This is currently your main display
Display 2:
Resolution: 1440x900
Multiple Displays: Extend these displays
[]Make this my main display
Card: Radeon HD 6950
Catalyst 12.10

Open your graphics properties and set your primary monitor as Main display. From the Desktop right click and select "Screen Resolution" – Moab – 2012-10-27T02:28:31.003
@Moab, I already did that – Brandon Kreisel – 2012-10-27T02:31:17.997
What exactly did you do in there? There are several settings that can be changed, edit your question to include more detail. – Moab – 2012-10-27T02:36:07.237
@Moab, tried to make a little more coherent; is there anything else your looking for? – Brandon Kreisel – 2012-10-27T03:11:22.143
and which is your main display? 1 or 2? What's the graphics card? Which version of drivers? – Sathyajith Bhat – 2012-10-27T04:06:23.467
@Sathya the point is moot now but I added some more details – Brandon Kreisel – 2012-10-27T05:32:07.040
@BrandonKreisel not really, there'll be others with the same problem. Having as much details in question helps sort out things – Sathyajith Bhat – 2012-10-27T05:34:23.327
