    Default Vista Slideshow on 2nd Monitor HELP!!!

    I'm running Vista and I want to run my Vista Photo Gallery slideshow on my
    second monitor.

    I launch Photo Gallery, I drag the Photo Gallery application window to my
    second monitor. However, when I click on "Play Slideshow (F11)" the
    application moves itself back to my primary monitor and proceeds to
    display/run the slideshow on the primary monitor.

    Trying this a scond time, when I launch the Photo Gallery application the
    application opens on the second monitor, but again when I click on "Play
    Slideshow (F11)" the application moves itself back to my primary monitor and
    proceeds to display the slideshow on my primary monitor again.

    How do I get my slideshow to run on my secondary monitor?

    I have Radeon X1650 with Asus 22" 221C on 1 output and a Samsung 19" 931C on the other output.

    Thanks,

    Jas

    As a quick work around can you simply swap the monitors.

    Swap which one is primary/ secondary ie which one is 1 and which one is 2.
