Sean. Thanks. What I want is to make my main display #1. At the moment, it shows up as #2.

In that case, depending on how you have them connected, see if switching the connections for them on the graphics card may reverse them.

When in that window you can drag one monitor over to the other side so they are [2][1] instead of [1][2]. That way they match your actual monitor setup and your mouse goes the right way from monitor to monitor. Mine are situated like this.

Some drivers like to change order of monitors (like in my case). When I set a particular order of 2 monitors with windows setup, driver setup program (CCC by AMD) reverses it and overrides Windows one.
