Quick question about dual monitors

Lethagized · 26 May 2010 at 22:20

I like to use my second monitor for internet use etc etc whilst in game. How do i stop windows from automatically switching from the game to windows explorer when in game? I can't see any options in Nvidia control panel.

Playing it in window'd mode is probably the best way, I'm afraid. If you run the game with the correct resolution of your screen it will basically run full-screen. Then you can just drag the window over to your secondary monitor and have the main one free for internet browser, media player et cetera.

Most games have an option called "borderless window" mode. In this mode it will look like it is full screened but it will allow you to see web pages/videos etc on the other screen, you just need to alt+tab to manipulate them.

Thanks for the answers lads. Im running 2 24" monitors of the same resolution.

Its not so bad running them in windowed mode actually.
