Dualview Messing with my head

[derekblankmccoy]

Hey everybody
Ive got 2 monitors hooked up to my GF4 ti4800 SE Ive got them in Dualview mode. Whats pissing me off is that when i close an application that maximized (almost all apps) what I do is just push my mouse to the front and right and click really fast. Its a rapid movement but Im obsessed with it, bc I love to close apps fast. Now that Ive got 2 monitors, everytime I wanna do that the mouse cursor spans over across to the other monitor (which is facing another direction completely). Also sometimes I get angry when im moving my mouse and i dont see my cursor bc its on the other monitor, it just messes with my head bc I cant see the other monitro from where i am.
I want to know if theres a way to restrict the mouse cursor only to my primary monitor. All I use the other monitor for is as a TV facing my bed and I just send media player and Power DVD to it.
Ive found no settings anywhere that do it, but Im pretty dumb, so please help!

why are you bothing with a dualview setup then?

you could always swap the positioning of the moniters so the one you work on is the 'right hand side' one. then your little move could work.


or you could learn to use alt+f4 to close windows.

if you cant see both monitor then you probly dont really want the spanned desktop.

you can use dual monitors to show the same thing on 2 displays too, thats probly a better option for your circumstances.

I use a similar setup, I have one monitor in bedroom and my TV in living room. same thing shows on both.(one thing is that with my vid card (ATI9700) one has to be set to primary, it is the only one that will display video, the other is just a purple screen, can switch to secondary in display properties)
