There's a 2nd monitor in Display Properties/Device Manager, 640x480. Not sure how it got there, I had my monitor (NEC PA231w) connected to the D-Sub port then I unplugged it and connected it to the Display Port.

When I power off the NEC, Windows does the BING-BONG Device Arrival/Removal sound and switches to the "secondary" monitor, and because it's 640x480 it scrambles my desktop. When I power the monitor back, Windows does the BADA-BING sound and presents me with my rudely scrambled desktop.

I googled, I uninstalled monitors form DEv Manager, I deleted Displays in Registry, to no avail.

Help.
