Eh... for the people with that think they can run game on dual monitors....

How do you do it? 😀

I mean, when you're direct3Ding, it only come up in the primary monitor right? Cuz I tried, and hell, I can't get it to display on two monitors.

I've never been able to game on duals....intersted in this too

What kind of video card do you have?

They likely don't do it, or have a special video card. 99% of the games out there don't support dual monitors, and do exactly what you're describing when trying to game on two monitors.

short answer: YOU CANT!

long answer: it will only display on 1 monitor, however Serious Sam will span across 2 monitors but only with a Matrox Card, other then some flight Sims no other games do dual mon

I thougth MS Flight Simulator could do it. I think some other games can do it too, but they require two 3D cards. Like an AGP card and a PCI card.

my radeon 9700 pro cant display anything on the second display at propper speed, even some winamp visualizers crawl if I have them on the secondary monitor

I remember seeing something about this on The Screen Savers and they said it had something to do with an issue with ATI cards but that certian Nvidia cards could do it.

Tom's did a review of this earlier this year. Both the 9800XT and 5950 overheated and corrupted the images when they used FS9 on two displays.
