I've got a GeForce GTX470 and I've finally arranged a set up where I can have my TV close enough to my desktop to output video and gaming to my TV. I want to do this via HDMI. My question has to do with a problem I have with my laptop doing the same thing.
Every time I hook up my laptop to my TV via HDMI (the laptop has a GTX 660M GPU) I get my desktop shortcuts completely realigned and thrown to the left of the screen which is a huge pain because I keep them separated intro specific groups. Then I have to spend time reorganizing them. I've tried Fences and it doesn't seem to want to work on my laptop (Win 8.1). So, looking at this new setup with my desktop, what do I need to do to ensure that my desktop shortcuts don't go crazy the moment I plug in the computer to the TV? And why is this happening?
