Activity Forums VEGAS Pro wrong preview monitor

  • wrong preview monitor

    Hi all,
    I recently upgraded (finally) to Vegas 17 and upgraded my GPU .
    When I select preview on external monitor it opens on my main display.
    I have a feeling this isn’t Vegas’ fault but something to do with the GPU because when I open a project in my old Pro 12 it does the same thing.
    If I right click on my desktop and select Display Settings and then identify it correctly shows my main display as 1 and the 2nd as 2.
    However when I hit detect it states it “didn’t detect another display”.
    Everything else seems normal as I can drag a browser onto the 2nd monitor but Vegas doesn’t want to use it as a preview monitor.
    Like I say, I have a feeling it’s something wacky with the GPU and not Vegas but I was hoping someone here can help.
    Thanks very much,
    Randy

    Edit- BTW options/prefs/prevew device/ identify correctly identifies them as well.

    Vegas Pro 17
    i7-3770 3.10ghz 4 core
    32 GB RAM
