Is there another program that can run this besides ya Nvidia.
because if i have for simple example,
msn on screen 2 and a game full screen on screen 1 wen i click msn it pulls me out the game asif av brough msn to the top.

am sure av seen a mate doing this and it not happing
unfortunatly cant get hold ov him now .

I'm sure the best way to do it is run the game in a "Windowed' mode and not full screen. Once MSN is clicked the game will lose focus rather than minimise.

For dual screens check out Ultra Mon, not related to your problem but such a great program for dual displays.

I have solved the problem with that trick a few times but some games can only run full screened.

I told my girlfriend to do this on WoW a few weeks ago, shes still amazed by it. The only trouble is she used to come off WoW to chat to people on MSN so she didnt look too anti social, now she carries on playing WoW and using MSN together :rolleyes:
