Hi samrein

This may happen due to shortage of video memory on remote desktop.More monitors makes higher the resolution, higher the video memory from the VM, the higher the bandwidth needed to get those pixels on your remote client.

If these are linked clone or full clones, increase the video memory on these VMs and test again.

If you are using instant clone desktop, then the resolution will be picked up by the video memory specified on the base image snapshot.

You can change the video memory to 128 MB take a new snapshot and publish the pool and test.
