Maximizing Windows With Three Monitors
Feb 18, 2011
Whenver I maximize a window it goes across all three screens, now that is okay for video games but not so much for the internet or other programs. Whenever I open a program it is opened very small and I have to manually adjust to windows to each screen, and it kind of gets annoying.So is there a way that I can change a setting or something that when I maximize my window it will only maximize on the screen that I have the window open on?I am running Windows 7 btw.

I use the IE browser. Although I have it set on maxim window size, all my web sites initially come on reduced size and I have to click on the maximizing window. Anyone know how to have max window sizes all the time?

Don't know why, but when I try and drag a window to the top of my screen to 'maximize' it, Windows 7 will minimize it to the bottom of the screen instead - where just the title bar is showing.

recently the problem started to occur. Basically, the windows maximize and minimize slowly sometimes. When i restart the laptop the problem usually gets fixed.
- I recently updated my graphics cars as well : ATI Mobile Radeon 5600..
- Windows updates are automatic as well
Laptop Specs:
Sony Vaio E series
Operating: Win 7 Home Premium (64 Bit) , i3
RAM: 4 GB

I've had this problem for a while where occasionally when I boot up my laptop (Dell XPS), the windows would maximize and minimize in slow motion and all my games run in slow motion. A restart usually fixes the problem.I've looked for solutions in the past but the problem always comes back. I was wondering if anyone can tell me what the problem is or how to fix it.

On occasion, when FF7 has been maximize, the Windows 7 taskbar (locked and set to autohide) can not be brought up with a hovering cursor. To get it back while in max screen, I have to fiddle around with minimizing and maximizing while bringing up the taskbar when it is visible...a real PITA, eh? Although I have researched this problem and have found out it goes back at least 5 years, I have yet to see a solution?

I've recently encountered a strange thing while playing ME3 on my Windows 7 laptop. I'm a big fan of the series and I've played 1 and 2 with no problems at all. However, there's an issue going with ALT+Tabbing. I know some games are not meant to work this way but that is a really strange case. I could minimize Mass Effect 1, the full window restoration would take some time though. I could also minimize ME2 and restore it in mere seconds. Mass Effect 3, I just can't restore it. It stays on the taskbar, I can click it endlessly but it won't come up. And right when I thought this is a one-game issue, I accidentally tried again and it worked. I could minimize/restore Mass Effect 3 in a couple seconds. But it only worked this one time.

How do I get the picture to maximize automatically when I click on a desktop icon with Internet Express as the default browser. With Google Chrome as the default browser, it works fine.

With multiple windows opening, I like to move one different position. but the automatic maximization of one window to full screen is annoying.
Who can help to stop this fancy thing?

With widescreen monitors, which are pretty much the standard these days, there is always plenty of horizontal space, it's the vertical space that is at more of a premium. To take advantage of this I've done 2 things - First, I moved my taskbar to the left side of the screen, this gives me that much more vertical space in all programs.
The second thing is program-specific. I use Firefox and I certainly spend more time in it than any other program. I've installed 2 two add-ons, Vertical Bookmarks Toolbar and Compact Menu. They do just what their names imply - the first places my bookmarks toolbar to the left (or right, if you prefer) of the screen, the second compacts my entire Menu toolbar to a small icon that sits in the upper-left corner of the address bar. Getting rid of these 2 horz menu bars gives one a nice little chunk of additional real estate. It takes a bit getting used to, but once you do, it's great.

I have 3 monitors connected in windows 7 64 bit; VGA, DVI & HDMI/DVI cable. The displays are all there, but I can only get two to work at one time. I can readily switch between them but not get all 3 to be as one extended desktop.I have a feeling I'm missing something simple, like another piece of hardware to extend them as-one.The system is an ASUS CG5270, Quad Core2 Q8300 with Intel G45/G43 Express Chipset (display).I was pleased that I could use the HDMI output to a DVI monitor for the 3rd monitor. It doesn't appear that Windows 7 wants to allow three displays together as one expanded desktop

Does win 7 require a 'newer' widescreen monitor for best visual? Everything is so small on screen. And the offered alternative configs. all look distorted. My flatscreen monitor is a 15" screen (33cm x 26cm or 13" x 10").

I would like to setup 2 monitors on my computer. I know my computer is older but it is very fast and I don't plan on using the monitors on resource hogging stuff
My specs are:
Intel pentium 4 3ghz HT ENABLED
4gb ram
1tb hdd
Nvidia gt 520 1gb
windows 7
My monitors are 2 different inputs / outputs
If I just plugged them both in to the plugin on my gpu would it work and have to adjust stuff? I have never used dual monitors so I don't know. One monitor has a 1600x900 (I plan on this being main monitor)
Other is 1024x768. One of them is dvi and other is vga.

As of right now I am running Windows XP Pro 64bit cause Windows 7 will not display dual monitors, I tried a combination of things and nothing... But xp shows them both with no problems and I didn't even have to install my driver for it! Windows 7 uli when I stall the driver cause i have the same disk that came with the video card what's the deal-le-o here
Running: on board video is Nvidia GeForce 6100 512mb
PCI card with dual vga ports and 1 S-Video port Nvidia GeForce FX 5200
Not sure if ram has anything to do with this but I have 3.25gb ram but both windows 7 and xp only show 2gb I'm thinking that might have to do with that 1.25gb are not of the same as the 2 1gb sticks.

1. Having two monitors in different rooms, means that the desktop/taskbar is on one screen or another.
2. People using the keyboard/mouse in one room will affect the user in the other room.
Is there any way to setup win7 to allow different profiles for each monitor? Essentially allowing two different users on the same computer at the same time?

I'm trying to find a third party program that will allow me to expand one display on two monitors. I have a nvidia card, unfortunately nvidia and win7 refuse to create a program that will allow me to put one picture on two screens to get a big picture. They have it in XP but nothing for 7. I have the lasted nvidia driver for win 7 but the software is sadly lacking. I can't believe they don't have a program like in XP. They seem to think people only want separate displays on the two screens... why they think that is beyond me.
Anyone here know where I can get a program that will give me one display in two monitors.

I had dual monitors working from Vista desktop, using a VGA/DVI from a single video card. Last week, the HDD failed, so I figured it was time to step up to Win7. Bought Win7 Home Premium, bought HDD and installed.... See dual copies on monitor screens during boot, but when the boot goes to switch over to the HDD, both screen go and remain blank... Hitting keys and moving mouse, I hear disk noise that leads me to believe the machine is processing my input, but I just can't see it. Confirmed by disconnecting one monitor. The machine boots fine w/single monitor hooked up, so it doesn't appear to be a "sour" install. Just odd that everything worked fine in Vista, but balks in Win7.

i really dig a lot of the look and feel of the linux stuff out there, particularly conky. im running windows 7 instead of linux because it handled the raid install better, and because wine....well....lets be honest...Wine is not so hotANYWAY, can you guys post some links to some conky style system monitors to have on the desktop for windows 7? i really hate the look of a lot of the stupid fisher-price looking gadgets and widgets and junk, i like the 'smarter looking' conky type stuf

I have an xfx radeon hd 6790. I am using the hdmi port and the display port for two tvs and I am using the vga (I think its called the vga) port it sez right on the box that it supports 3 monitors. I can switch between any two that I want but I cant get all three to work at the same time. I try to use all three at the same time I get "to extend the display another display must be disabled".
