How to Swap Display Identity (Identities)

I can't conceptualize how a software solution isn't possible regardless of the nature of the problem.  There is a cause, there is a solution.  Curiously mum, as far as I can find (or worse, negligent) are those who should know best.

When a display is selected under "Change the appearance of your displays" select make this my main monitor and it should switch it up the number doesn't really matter too much.

When a display is selected under "Change the appearance of your displays" select make this my main monitor and it should switch it up the number doesn't really matter too much.

Choosing a display as your "main monitor" in the "Change the appearance of your displays" dialog only affects outward appearances, such as which part of the desktop programs will display on by default, etc.  It does not affect which display Windows actually internally treats as the the main monitor.   One clue to this is that, even if monitor 2 is the "main monitor", the entire boot up process, including windows and the BIOS, displays on monitor 1.   Another clue is that, disconnecting monitor 1 and reconnecting it again disrupts the entire desktop display and causes all open windows to be redrawn, even ones that are on the "main monitor", monitor 2.

So, no matter which display you choose as your "main monitor" in Windows, in the "Change the appearance of your displays" window, both the BIOS and Windows still internally treat monitor 1 as the main monitor.  It does not matter which port each monitor is connected to.  I have both monitors connected to displayports on the same NVIDIA card.  Swapping the connections when the computer is off has no effect.  

I have been trying to figure this out in my head for a long time and have concluded that there must be some permanent manufacturer identifying number within the hardware of each monitor that determines which one will be considered monitor 1 and which one will be considered monitor 2.  Perhaps the manufacture date or the MAC address, or something like that.   Try as I might, I cannot get the BIOS boot process (and therefore the Windows boot process) to occur on monitor 2.    Windows only switches over to moniotor 2 at the last moment when the login screen is displayed.

This is driving me freaking nuts........

Okay,

Why can't I simply click and re-identify my stuff? Here is my major malfunction:

I have 3 monitors that I run in Eyefinity with 2 7950's setup in a Crossfire. The 7950's that I'm using have 2x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1 Mini Display Port per card. You can only use the output on the primary card. This is normal.

In order to run Eyefinity you MUST use the Minidisplay Port. I don't know exactly why. So I hooked up Monitor 1 via DVI, Monitor 2 via DVI, and Monitor 3 via Minidisplay Port.

Here is where it gets tricky: I have an Occulus Rift that I plug into the HDMI Slot. It's normally turned off. However, my video cards only allow for 3 active outputs at any given time. Thus, I use a preset to disable Monitor 1 and Monitor 3  so that only Monitor 2 is active (which is the center screen) and then turn on my Oculus Rift DK2 via HDMI and BOOM! Windows slots it as Monitor 2, pushes back Monitor 2 to Monitor 3. AMD CCC views the Oculus Rift as Monitor 1 and Monitor 3 as Monitor 2. It's causing all sorts of havoc with anything that I try to use with the Rift.

The worst part is that no matter what I do Windows ALWAYS identifies the Oculus Rift as Monitor 2 as soon as I turn it on. No matter what other 2 Monitors that I have active. It doesn't care that Monitor 2 is already on and active. It does this no matter what Monitor I use as my primary or 1, or 2, or 3, etc... It always forces it to Monitor 2.   

Even when I delete the Registry and force Windows to reconfigure the monitors by plugging them in 1 at a time Windows still gets all crazy any time I turn on the Oculus Rift DK2. It hard code assigns it to Monitor 2 for no apparent reason.

Please help. If Windows 10 is a hot mess like Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 and 8.1 I'm giving up on Microsoft and going full Apple. I have everything Microsoft from a Desktop, to Laptop, MS Surface, and I even have a Windows Phone! I've been such a supporter and I'm always getting burned.

Please help.
