Right-click on the desktop > properties > advanced

Depends which graphics card and driver you've got, but there should be a tab called 'Displays' or something similar.  You can determine which one is 1 and which is 2 via that tab.

If they are the wrong way round, simply pick screen 1 up and jiggle screen 2 across till it's in screen 1's old spot.  Then put screen 1 down in screen 2's place.

No need to thanks me.

If the two monitors are the same, with the same resolution, you could just swap the cables over.
