    Noticed something minor but really annoying when I updated the display driver to my compaq v6000. I use two monitors my laptop screen and an external one. It used to be that I could set the big external monitor to be my primary. With the updated driver the only screen that can be primary is the laptop one since the option to change primaries is grayed out so everytime I open a window or play a game it pops up on that one and I have to find a way if possible to drag it to the other screen.

    Is there a way to remedy this short of driver rollback?
