How do i set up my computer so my monitor is the only one that can be used?
i have a teenage boy and he comes in and unplugs my monitor and plugs in his
monitor. this way he thinks i cant find out he is on my system.....

Why don't you lock the computer when you aren't on. The little lock on your
keyboard and a password. You could explain that it doesn't have any effect
on your knowing whether he is on or not.

Winkey-L will lock your user account. You will need to enter your password
to get back in.

or as I said, on the start button, next to the shutdown is a lock button
which is the same as win-key/l either way you will need your password to
log back in.
