I have found a software configuration solution for the tape trick that I've used for a while. I cost me about 5 hours to find this simple solution, however the tape trick works just as wel if you not switch cables.

System: Intel NUC DN2820FYKH (HD Graphics)
OS: Linux Mint 17 (sorry no Windows)

-I did this as a root user
sudo su

-Make xorg.conf (If not available in /etc/X11, this is the case with Mint 17)
Xorg :1 -configure

-Move xorg.conf to /etc/X11 (If not available in /etc/X11, this is the case with Mint 17)
mv /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf

-Open the config file for edit
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

-Make sure uncomment the following option and make it false
Option "HotPlug" "False"

Reboot, done.
