Dual display problem

Recently my dual display setup has been on the fritz. I have a 17" apple cinema display as the main one and an ancient Dell CRT for the secondary one. However, the OS seems to be confused as to which one I WANT to be the primary one, and has been making the Dell CRT the main display (menubar on that one instead of the apple one, etc).

Dragging the screens around in Arrangement is no help because the red box denoting which display OS X thinks is primary ALWAYS appears around the Dell.

Causes? Help!
 
When you have the 2 blue boxes in front of you in the arrange tab you can drag just the top 'menu bar' part of the blue box without switching the actual blue box...

does this make sense?
