Is it using your primary or secondary monitor?

Most game will use your primary monitor with no way to change this, and it sucks.

I have 4 monitors, it's using #3...my primary is #2
Oh and graphics drivers are up to date...

Huh, that is weird. I would have expected it to default to primary, like all other games. Unfortunately I don't own it, so I can't provide much help.

Not touching this until a few months down the road... First because I got Ghosts early and it kept crashing my system -- no issues the few times I started it up recently.

I always toggle off the monitor that won't be used when gaming in the driver settings so it's forced to use whatever monitor is operating.
