Dual Screen Gaming

[KWJay]

Hi Guys.

I have just hooked up my new 32" LCD TV to my pc via a dvi cable, set it up in NVCP as the 2nd display and all is fine in windows. My question however is this...

Can i set up my displays so that i can play games on the secondary screen (LCD TV) AND on the primary monitor?

An example is that i want to play HL2 Episodes on my main 20.1" WS NEC, and Pro Evo on the LCD TV (not at the same time obviously!) without having to change the primary display each time and re-arrange all my icons!

Anyone got ay ideas how i can do this?

Don't have any icons?

Thanks for that really useful suggestion! lol!

I've figured out the icon thing, so now just need to know if there's a way to get certain games to run on either primary or scondary screen without reselecting each time (i'm pretty lazy!!)

Not too much of a problem if i can't, just thought i'd see if anyone else had tried this!

Ultramon has extended options in the shortcut properties for changing the display profile settings automatically as the game launches...I haven't toyed with it much myself though.
