Window appearing on disabled monitor

by rossinjd . Updated 18 years, 2 months ago

I have laptop which is normally connected to a docking station. When the laptop is plugged into the docking station, I have an external monitor which I use as the primary display and the laptop monitor which I use as the secondary display.
I decided to take my laptop home and just run it using the laptop’s monitor. Most of my programs work just fine, however for some reason when I run one of my programs it starts on the disabled monitor. Since I can’t see the window I can’t move it to my laptop monitor.
I’ve tried rebooting, and changing the screen resolution, neither worked.
Is there any way to tell a program which monitor to start on? Is there a way to move programs from 1 monitor to the other without using the mouse to drag them?

thanks,
John.
