dual screen + game #2

AHOI!

i have a second screen now and id like to be able to play a game on the one screen while surfing/chatting on the other

now my problem is when the game is fullscreen on screen 1 i cant switch to screen 2 without alttabbing rendering the fullscreen game minimized




and that blows.



so is there any way to switch from one screen to another without alttabbing or atleast without the game being minimized?

Already told you it's not working!

Simple Explanation:

When you're ingame, your mouse is kinda 'locked' there, allowing you to move your mouse left and right ingame

if it wasn't like that, you couldn't e.g. move to the left since your cursor would go on other screen then

Peace! :)
there might be some program removing the directx mouselock, however!

playing with nvidia duel view on with 2 screens will give you fps problems!

get a 2nd pc.

pc1 --> screen1: gaming
pc2 --> screen2: chatting/surfing

problem solved. np.
play windowed with full resolution, works then
you still will need to alt+tab, but it wont minimize and maximize again, thats all you can get but thats ok imo
yeah, that works i reckon

not possible when on same pc
If u hack/remove the mouse lock u cant do a 360 in a fps game. sometime my nvidia drives bugs so the mouselock disperse its fucking useless.
I do this.
I press the Windows key on my keyboard and my mouse is unlocked from the game. Try it out, could work for you too maybe.
just plug in another mouse while ur playing
just buy a rly cheap pc for chatting & surfing..
Try ultramon
depends what game :D
