I have AWM 6.7.2 installed, Windows 7 x64. I added a 3rd monitor on a SIIG USB 2.0-to-VGA adapter. Under Multiple Monitors->Monitory Layout and Background I see all 3 monitors and can configure settings.

2 issues:
1) Under Monitors Layout and settings I could not set/see the proper resolution size until I configured from Windows side. Then it picked up the right resolution.
2) Under Background I can see and set all 3 monitor backgrounds, but under Desktop Profiles I can not see the 3rd monitor at all. If I "Identify" the monitors, all 3 register. If I activate the profile it disables the 3rd monitor.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it doesn't seem that the Dekstop Profiles properly sees all monitors.

As a side note, the 3rd monitor is on a SIIG USB 2.0 to VGA adapter.

Hello Chris,

Thanks for the post.

- Could you send me your configuration files with all 3 monitors connected (Actual Window Manager -> File -> Send Configuration -> Send to the Tech Support)?

- Desktop profiles don't refresh hardware configuration. You should create a new desktop profile to see all 3 monitors there.

Best regards.

2) THANKS! That did it. Didn't realize I had to create new. All good now!
