Test video card DVI to DVI on HP monitor and video card HDMI to TV HDMI. On restart, what is the primary?

Fantastic response time , thanks, Have ordered today Dvi to HDMI adapter and 2mtr DVI to Dvi cable ,as have neither ,coming next week at the moment the primary is set to HP Monitor but the DELL start up screen with logo / F2 and F12 always start on TV which is acting as Primary (the secondary ) so cannot see choice of either Vista or Win 7,anyway will contact again when following your test :emotion-11:

Not sure about the UK dell thing. So the conclusion from this is that whatever is plugged into the DVI gets Display 1 and HDMI gets Display 2? Is that correct?
