| 1334757 | 2013-03-30 03:17:00 | I've got my second monitor connected to my Windows 8 PC, works fine other than: When I launch Firefox, it opens on the second monitor, I got to drag it to my main screen. How do I make it to open FF on my main monitor? |

| 1334759 | 2013-03-30 07:29:00 | Do you have the latest FF ? After doing a bit of reading it was a known bug in Firefox ( for quite some time) when using dual monitors, was "meant" to be fixed, BUT this was with W7, so it may still be a bug in FF & W8 Several other forums suggest : You may need to disable hardware acceleration to make Firefox work properly with a multiple monitor setup. •Firefox > Tools>Options> Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available" |

| 1334760 | 2013-03-30 07:57:00 | I know W7 remembers the last screen it opens and apparently, W8 doesn't. I'm using FF 19.0.2 |

| 1334762 | 2013-03-31 01:31:00 | I don't know what have I done, FF just opens on my main screen late last night. :) I had been fiddling with it the whole day yesterday morning and afternoon couldn't get it to work the way I want it but when I turned ON the machine late last night, it just works! Seriously, I don't know what have I done! LOL |
