Dual Monitors for gaming

[josh6079]

How can you make both monitors run the same image in games?

I'm not very knowledgeable in this area, but I do belive that this can be done in a very limited number of titles. Also, I believe it can only be done with games that run in OpenGL?

Here is a link I hope it helps you a little :Link

If you're using an nvidia card, you can just go into the control panel and change the nView display mode to dualview i think. It's one of those in the list.

And you will have the game spread across two monitors?

Thanks redbox.

I would like to know if that works for you Josh. Please tell us if this works or if you figure anything else out that can do this.

I'm probably not going to pursue it as much yet since with two monitors the screen splits right down the center of what I'm playing. It is something that is more effective with at least three or more monitors.

Although, you could use the other monitor for a score box or somthing like on redbox's link. Maybe I'll get a third monitor. 🙂
