So after recently buying a new monitor, I've (after a hectic month) found time to plug in my older monitor to use as a second monitor to save me alt tabbing during games and upcoming GW2.
Although I have came across the classic problems, first off was the lack of a second task bar which I solved by using Actual Multi monitors free. Job Done.
Then I came across the problem of that I cant use the second monitor whilst I have a full screen gaming running on monitor 1. I solved this by some googling and searching on this forum by playing in windowed mode with task bars hidden.
I do find this rather annoying after being used to full screen for so long. I've asked around and have been informed that DisplayFusion Pro can sort out all my problems but that is over £10 on a program I'm not 100% sure myself that will give me what I want.
So are there any other programs out there that are free or cheaper to let me play fullscreen on monitor 1 whilst, juggling IM convos,web browser and maybe music on monitor 2?
Cheers
