I have 3 identical displays, however this is how they appear in the Nvidia Control Panel:

Two displays use an Nvidia logo icon. One display uses a blue background icon

Why is the icon for display 2 of 3 different then the other two?

The OS is Windows 10 (64bit). The graphics card is Quadro RTX 4000 and I have the latest drivers loaded (572.16).

I'm asking because it may be a symptom of other issues I'm investigating with the affected monitor:

  • When I lock my PC, the two monitors will fall asleep. Their light turns orange. This monitor will stay on with a white light.
  • When unlocking my PC the next day, all the windows are moved from this monitor onto one of the others.

Adaptive sync was turned off on the monitor in question. This made the icons look the same, but did not fix the underlying issue.

For anyone that stumbles across this, the fix was to disable input auto detection. Depending on the firmware version this may show up in different places in the on screen display. My best guess is that when the screens would go dark, the monitor would try to look for signals on the other inputs "disconnecting" from the display port. This would cause windows to move everything to the other two screens.
