Carolyn,

If it's only TWS that causes these problems, I suspect that java has a conflict with one of your video cards. I once had problems with TWS when the color display settings were set to 256 color. Check that neither video card is set to a fixed screen resolution like 256 color. Both should be set to 32 bit or 16 bit color. TWS won't work on 256 color setting.

If your settings are already correct, next see if you can get TWS to work on one monitor or the other, by itself before loading other programs. I'd reinstall TWS (not upgrade version but clean install, so it has no memory of your system.) Now it should come up on the primary monitor. If it does successfully, I'd leave it there, and not move it to the other monitor. If you want it on the other monitor, switch the primary monitor under display settings in windows, reboot and see if it comes up on the new primary monitor.

If it doesn't come up properly on the original primary monitor, switch the primary monitor as above, reboot and see if it comes up on the other set as primary.

If this works, then just leave TWS on the primary monitor, without trying to drag it across monitors. Maybe the other programs will now work across both monitors.
