Dual monitors question.

peterattheboro · 17 Sep 2011 at 13:36

I have 2 monitors but one is actually a TV. As it's bigger it's currently my main one.

Can I set the smaller one as the main but have games open up on the bigger screen for when I'm not watching TV with having to set it as my main all the time?

Hope that makes sense.

You certainly can't out of the box, there may be some third party software to do it though. Why not get another monitor and use the TV as a TV.

Haven't got the space to do it.

Ultramon might do it. Can set certain apps to open on mon1 or 2 etc.

Can't see the option on Ultramon.. it does however have a quick main monitor select so that's better than going into the desktop properties each time
