Hey guys, I came across the reg file on this site that allows me to turn off my display using the right click menu and it works great! However I have dual monitors and sometimes want to turn off the 2nd one only and this reg file turns off both at the same time. Can someone show me a way to turn off the 2nd monitor only?

Hello Sneeze, and welcome to Eight Forums.

This may not be what you are after, but have you considered using the power button on the monitor to turn it on and off at will?

thanks for the suggestion, I've been using that method lately. I just want something different and know it is possible but do not have the skills to program it on my own. It's technology after all and it's suppose to make life easier for the lazy people ya know =P
