Hi guys, was just wondering how to get fullscreen games to open on the middle screen rather than the far left one. Running triple screen Eyefinity, and games like SC2 always open on the far left, which is a tad annoying...

Cheers guys :)
 
Right click on wallpaper, select resolution. Click on middle screen, put a tick in "primary screen", then OK. If you want the taskbar on the left screen still, right click on it, unlock it, then drag it to the left screen bottom and lock it again.
The downside is this will mess up your wallpaper order, so I use DisplayFusion to manage wallpaper (and in paid version give the other screens taskbars too).
 
Game got options for windowed mode at full 1920*1080 res?

Try setting it to a smaller window, moving it to middle screen then switching it to 1920*1080 or w/e your res is, that might make i stick to middle screen?
 
Sorry, was assuming the OP meant with Eyefinity disabled and running 3 'seperate' screens. I have Eyefinity enabled only when gaming and disable it for desktop use or single screen gaming (Unreal Engine games mostly due to necessity). I forgot most people leave Eyefinity enabled 24/7.

Can't do that as I am running crossfire, and for some reason windowed games only use the first gpu :(
 
I'm currently using 11.4 preview drivers - under the "AMD Eyefinity" section on the left, I have a "Set Preferred Display" option which looks like it'll allow me to select which screen single screen games run in. Might be worth trying that?
