I knew that.

I miss going there. It was super cool. best buy is boring.

Frys was weird. I have some John Deere toys from one of the times I went there because we were fridge-hunting.

They put one there? Why not just go to Frys? It's cooler.

I wish they'd put one here.

We had 2 Fry's here until they went under. the last 3 or so years for Frys were... bad. I'm super excited to get an MC. I visited the one in Denver and it's amazing.

Wait. You had two over there? The only one I have seen there was the one on the freeway.

That was the Tempe location. There was another one at 44th and thunderbird. it was themed like an Aztec temple.

We always went to the City of Industry gear one. Once we went to the castle one somewhere in Costa Mesa. Didn't like that as much as the gears.

Nabi, Got a utiliity or a howto to pin an app to a specific display in windows 10?

Here's the scenario.

Main monitor is identified in windows as #1 display and connected via displayport to gpu. Tagged as the primary display for winders.

Secondary Monitor is identifued as display 2, HDMI. It's set up in portrait mode because I use it mostly for slack/teams and for Lightroom.

tertiary monitor is also connected via displayport. (mostly for rainmeter)

So when the displays shut off, #1 and #3 sleep. #2 shuts off completely and has to be powered back on via remote or button press

When I wake them, 2/3 come up first, then 1. And all apps shift to display 2.

it's annoying as hell.

I run most stuff on display 1 and have to keep dragging them back over if I leave for any length of time. I'd prefer to pin them to display 1 somehow so they come back on that correctly.

Any ideas?

I have this issue with Linux too.

Is the HDMI on the motherboard or the GPU? Is there a thrid DisplayPort to plug it in to?

I don't really know of anything else to get it to stop doing that since I don't use Windows a lot.

RX 6800XT. 3 displayport, one hdmi. I need the HDMI for the one vertical monitor as it has no other outputs. Even a displayport to hdmi adapter to use all displayport on the GPU does the same thing.

This motherboard has no built-in display port, nor does the processor have an APU, so it's all GPU, all the time.

It's going to be interesting for my Macs the next year or so. I wonder how well they'll handle macOS Tahoe.
