It's all well and good having a dual-screen setup for your PC but it's just taken me getting on for half an hour to get everything back to how it should be (and how I like it) after a program crashed and left my desktop at Old Fart resolution.
Of course I'd left a million and one things open and unsaved before opening the guilty program so I didn't want to just reboot the PC to solve the problem I ended up with after changing the resolution - my mouse was trapped on the secondary screen!
With judicial use of the ALT and TAB keys I managed to save and close all essential items, so rebooted. But now the mouse was trapped on the primary screen - arghhhhhhhhh!
Thank goodness for my resident techie support guy - a quick text revealed that the monitors had swapped positions so a quick click and drag and then a final tweak of resolutions etc and I'm back in business again.
So the lesson I learned today (again!) was that I should save regularly!
