Clear Type Text Tuner not detecting the correct monitor

Anonymous

I have 2 monitors. When I go to the Clear type text tuner it is not detecting the correct monitor However if I go to Display Settings it is detecting the correct monitor. I'm confused. Since the correct monitor is the main one and bigger Clear Type thinks it's better for me to adjust the setting for the smaller monitor. Obviously not. Anyhow, where's the problem here? How can I fix this problem?

I find text to be too light (grey instead of black) especially in browsers and I am hoping this may fix the problem or make it better
