    I hope I can make this make sense :) Is there any way to set it up in CCC that upon boot it will identify and enable a secondary monitor? I found the setting for it to enable upon opening of CCC but not just do it on it's own? I could always just put th computer to sleep and not turn it off but doesn't that put extra stress on the RAM since it never gets a break?

    I don't understand. I setup my g73 using CCC to see both displays independently and select the external monitor as the main display. Then I unchecked extending the display to the built in display. Now every time I boot the system sees both screens until windows loads. Once windows loads the built-in display shuts off. If the ext monitor is not connected the system boots normally.

    Works great.

    Cheers,
