Do any of you seem to be having this problem?

Sometimes when my monitors power save or i go to play a game (and after quitting) the display group forgets which monitor goes where. so i have to open up CCC and re-display group everything, it's annoying, is there anyway to fix this? or do i need to just reinstall my drivers.
also, the widescreen fix program (when playing cod4) it shrinks the screen yes (which is great) but to access any options i have to hover the mouse as the left click doesn't work in widescreen fix and then i have to hit the enter button. i know this may sound like a stupid problem, but after spending as much as i have to use a setup like this, this should be working (albeit the first few months of bugs)

I don't have EF yet so this is only a guess. Could you delete the display group, swap the cables for the outside monitors, then re-create a new group ? If for some reason the 5870 or driver has a "default" order to firing the monitors, it should match ?
 
I think you might have to reinstall your drivers. I've had some crashes to my system when I was pushing it hard with folding, with the reboot all my monitors sync'ed up again properly. Even with screen saver or power saver, no issues.

Another solution is to remove your group, and create a new one for the video card to learn each monitor again.
 
i reinstalled the drivers. so far no troubles. time will tell. if i run into more issues i'll post that shit in a heartbeat.
 
NOPE! that shit didn't work. re-installed. and to what affect? i came back, sat down. moved the mouse, the middle monitor did not come on at all. and the left and rights were switched (again). wtf. should i post this problem on ati's site? should i call them? or asus? (as it is an asus card)
 
most likely ur adapter that is missbehaving.
get a new one from Dell.
 
So what you're saying is call "David" back up at dell and get all [H]einous on him about the adapter being stupid? btw, if it makes a difference: the left monitor is using the DVI-DP adapter and the middle/right are just DVI
