How do I prevent a window from opening on the wrong screen?

Am using the E6400 docked with two external screens (nvidia 160).
How come every time I open a new window it opens by default on screen "2" and not screen "1"?

Any way to change that?

 

Maybe if you switched which one is the primary monitor usiing control panel

 

Wouldnt "1" be the primary?

 

You can setup dual screens in the nvidia properties/setup screen (right-click on your desktop and you'll see it in the menu) If you set you GPU for a dual screen setup you can choose which screen is your main one and where new windows open etc. This will also make sure that when you use 1 screen for tools etc. for Photoshop for instance and the other screen for the photo your working on, and you start up photoshop with just the laptop screen your tools will be there and not on the non-existing screen....it used to happen to me on my oooold lappy which didn't have this option

ehh...this is all assuming the NVS160 has this option but i'm pretty sure it has
