I'm afraid I'm asking about something that does not have a fix, but here goes.
Running Windows 10, I have an Asus R9 390 connected to an Asus MG279Q via DP and an old NEC 90GX2 connected via DVI. The monitors go to sleep just fine after 15 minutes of inactivity on the computer, but when they are awoken, the windows are all rearranged. I see the NEC power on first, and all the windows are moved to it. A second or two later, the Asus fires up and some of its windows move back, though they are the wrong size. Other windows that were on the NEC also move to the Asus for some reason.
I've tried the registry hack to set the resolution, but I think that only works for single displays. I've tried the "Persistent Monitors" application that supposedly fixes this, but it does not.
I could probably alleviate this by not using Displayport, but unfortunately I would lose Freesync on this monitor as well so that's not really an option. This seems like a pretty terrible shortcoming with DP, disconnecting its displays from the OS during sleep states. Any ideas on this?
