 Hello,

Found that some applications after installation o AMM 4.0 do not display or display wrong icons in tray. As example skype do not display its icon at all. Apache monitor display icon that server is stopped(but it is started). Some applications like open office now display wrong icons in taskbar if AMM is active. Also for some reasosn starting of AMM 4.0 takes much more resorces than AMM 3.4.2 and more time.

If i remove AMM 4.0 all is working. If i install back 3.4.2 all is also working. If i update to AMM 4.0 getting problems back.

Win 7 Home premium 32bit
AMM 4.0

 Seems that this related to hang of explorer.exe when AMM starts and adds taskbars to all monitors.
I have this behavior always, when i work with three monitors. And 50% chance when i start windows with 2 monitors. And if i start with only one, all is working and icons in tray are correct and visible.
Also couple of times windows suggested me to force close of explore.exe as it is hanged after apply AMM profile(And i needed to close it, as nothing was working).
Never had such issues with 3.4.2

 Found that manual kill of explorer process and then start it again fixes missing/wrong icons in tray. But is very annoing to do it after almost every computer start.
Will be there any fix for this?

 Found that all problems was related to usb monitor driver from chronos. Seems like some incompatibility with AMM 4.0
Removed third monitor and driver - all is working fine.

 Hello Anatoli,

Thanks for the post.

Could you send me some screenshots of the problem?

- What version of chronos drivers are you running (name, version)? What cable do you use to connect your third monitor?

Best regards.

 Hello Vasiliy,

I changed notebook, so now i have native support for 3 monitors.
But maybe it will help for someone else:
I used Chronos USB 2.0 DVI-I Adapter. Driver USB 2DVI_v11.01.0418.0155, this the only one i was able to find on the official site for win7(http://www.chronos.com.tw/drivers/Windows%207%20driver/USB%202.0/USB2.0.htm).
I used this adapter with DVI to VGA adapter, as only this way it supports full hd resolution, however i redused resolution to 1440x900, as full hd rerendering time was too uncomfortable.

Regards,
Anatoli
