Open the Display Settings and drag one of the monitors over to the opposite
side.

You should also just be able to go into Display Settings and configur
the monitor orientation. To do this just right-click anywhere on you
desktop and select Personalize from the menu (or use the Control Panel)

Display Settings will be located at the bottom of the Personalizatio
Control Panel Window.

Choose the Monitor tab in the Display Settings dialog. You can then us
the Identify Monitors button to show you which display Windows thinks i
#1 and which is #2. You can then use drag and drop inside the dialog t
move them to the correct locations for your setup (as well as adjustin
resolution and selecting which one you prefer to be the primar
monitor)

You've already got the answer to your problem, but this program is essential
if you use multiple monitors. You can switch monitors around using this,
and do lots of other stuff, but most importantly, you can have Taskbars on
the other monitors.

Oh, and also swap those monitor cables around, so they are in the right
position by default. It's just neater that way.
