Issues when right monitor is set as primary display

Post by nuentes »

I have been having an issue with UltraVNC crashing when I switch screens on a desktop that has the right monitor set as their primary display. I'm able to remotely access these desktops just fine, but when I try to change to another screen, I get a message that VNC Viewer has experienced an error. I was having this issue with 1.1.9, so I upgraded to 1.2.1.1, but I'm still having the issue. Is there a setting I need to change?

Thanks for any help

Using a prim right monitor, the coordinates become negative and was giving trouble in the past. I tought this was fixed.

*viewer crash ?
upgraded: server and viewer ? (It's always possible that a viewer crash is caused by a bad server message.)
OS ?
mirror driver installed Yes/no

Oh wow - sorry for never responding - I didn't think this thread ever got created, and I didn't see it in the list.

I'm on Win7 Pro. The account I'm logged in is not a local administrator (although I have access to the local admin account). Mirror driver is enabled, and when I click the "check mirror driver" button, I get the following message:

Code: Select all

Drive found.
Driver version OK
Driver Not Activated, is the viewer current connected?
Server and Viewer are both on 1.2.1.1

That's normal, in non admin mode the driver can not be activated ( permission issue).
To use the driver elevated admin or service required.

But driver should not be required. It's on the todo list.
