I'm having a problem with my dual monitor setup. Whenever I move my cursor to the edge of one monitor, it gets stuck trying to jump to the other monitor. I've checked to ensure both monitors are aligned in the Windows settings and they share the same resolution, but the issue persists on both the top and bottom edges. Anyone know what might be causing this? Here's a link to an image that shows the problem: [imgur link]. My setup includes Windows 10, a Ryzen 5 5600GT, and 16GB of RAM on an A320M HDV motherboard.

I experienced a similar issue with my dual Dell monitors. Windows has a feature that makes it easier to navigate so the cursor might get caught on the edge. When trying to move from one screen to the other, you often have to move it a few pixels inward. You can search for instructions to disable this "sticky corners" feature if you prefer a smoother transition. Just a heads up, it might involve some registry changes.
It sounds like your computer might be confused about the monitor layout. You can check and adjust this in the Display Settings of Windows. Sometimes even if it looks aligned, there could be a minor misconfiguration. Make sure to double-check their positions!
I’ve aligned them perfectly according to Windows settings!
If you’re using an NVIDIA graphics card, you might want to tweak the display arrangement in the NVIDIA Control Panel. Sometimes Windows puts a tiny border between the monitors which can cause this sticking issue. However, if you’re not using NVIDIA, let me know what graphics setup you have!
I’m actually using just the Ryzen iGPU, no NVIDIA.
If you search online for "disable sticky corners in Windows 10," there are guides available for that. Just be careful because it might require some registry edits, which could lead to unintended issues if not done properly.
