Steam Client Freezing On Different Monitors....

Windows Server 2003

I run a triple monitor setup and i game on the left one. Usually keep hulu on the middle one and steam on the third. But whenever steam gets moved to any monitor but the left it goes full retard and will not let me click anything and then I have to close my game and force close it through task manager. Any ideas on how to fix and why this might be happening??

I like pie.

update everything. OS, BIOS, drivers, ensure you're using correct monitor drivers instead of generic drivers (most are)

 

reinstall steam

 

run a check disk repair (chkdsk c: /f)

 

run a system file check (sfc /scannow)

 

verify game files.

 

That's about all I can think of.

Probably gaming or helping technophobes with tech...

Are they plugged into different display outputs? EG the left is from GPU and the others are from your motherboard?

I edit my posts a lot.
