I shared this in the Display forum, but it took over four days for anyone to respond. I'm here to help if anyone has faced similar issues. Since 2005 I've been using dual monitors—upgraded once in 2010. Recently I switched from Samsung to LG models and noticed a problem with my setup. When the Windows 10 screen saver starts, it moves between monitors, which worked well before. Now with three monitors, the left one always shows the screen saver even though the middle is primary. This happens on both my daily PC and gaming PC, which are connected to different devices and switch inputs. Could anyone suggest a solution?

I propose a hypothesis. The monitor you chose may not show up as Display 1 but instead as Display 2 or 3 in the settings. This inconsistency could be the issue.

Indicates selection in the screen menu, though the adjustment confirms the main display is primary on both devices, appearing as #1.

Have you thought about rearranging the display cables so the screen with the screen saver connects to the center panel, then adjusting the Display Settings for proper cursor movement? This could potentially resolve the issue, though it might not change anything—it could be another theory.

Thank you for the idea. I attempted it, but because they're all display ports, it had no effect.
