    hello!

    i just got some new hardware for my new rig. this is my first dual display rig.
    and also my first scratch build :) wish me luck!

    my setup is based on dual XFX 9500GT with SLI. currently it is running 2 displays
    planning to add a plasma later

    my question:
    is there a way to power down the second/third display after n minutes of inactivity, only powering it up when a window is dragged to it. and not powering it up when the mouse pointer moves into its area

    i am just switching the display off by its power button right now, but i wanted to know if there is a software solution to this..
    i am running vista fully updated.

    thanx!
    Ark!

    no one?

    i found ultramon - it can disable the secondary display completely, even moving open windows to the primary display. but it doesnt power down the second / third display.

    please help.
