Yes I am using a docking station.
. Open the Control Panel.

2. Double-click the Display icon to show the Display Properties dialog box.

3. Click the Settings tab.

4. Click the numerical icon for the monitor you want designated as the primary monitor.

5. Click the open box to select the Use This Device as the Primary Monitor to place a check mark or remove it.

The check box is available only on the secondary monitor, not the one set as the primary.

Please try.
I will try this tomorrow, Thanks
