Hello.
When I disable the secondary screen with UltraMon, it just switches the display to blank with the blinking cursor in the top left corner, but it doesn't switches the monitor off like it does while "power-saving".
Everthing else is working really fine! Great tool!
Thanx for helping,
Tobi

This depends on the video card/drivers and the operating system.
For example on my Win2000 system, the two Nvidia cards don't turn off the monitors, but the Matrox G450 does (I guess the Matrox doesn't actually turn off the monitor, it just stops sending a VGA signal, causing the monitor to go on standby).
You'll see the same behavior when disabling a monitor from Display Properties.

That interesting, id never noticed that (cause the nvidia card is always primary :P ) but sure enough, swapping the primary to the Savage 4 and disabling secondary on the nvidia left it with a blank screen and a blinking with the monitor still on...the savage 4 lets the monitor turn off though and since its the only one that ever gets disabled im happy enough with that :)
