Is it possible to switch primary displays in Ultramon on a laptop? I have a CRT connected as the secondary display, as its marked as removable

Monitor 2 - Dell D1626HT (removable)
Settings: 1600x1200, 32-bit color, 75 Hz refresh rate
Video card: Radeon Mobility 7500 (Omega 2.4.60)
Device: \\.\DISPLAY2\Monitor0

Currently the option on the menu is grayed out and the VBS script just brings up an error. Maybe there's some other tools/registry settings that could be fiddled?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts on this

A monitor which is designated as removable can't be set as primary.

This is an issue with the video card driver, the driver decides whether a monitor is removable or not.

Unfortunately this is a frequent issue with laptops, I'm also not aware of any workarounds.
