i have an radeon 9500 pro. i want to output GTA Vice City to the TV and still be able to use the monitor so that i could read a strategy guide/walkthrough. essentially i wanna open the application in the secondary display. i've tried the different overlay settings, installed hydravision and tried ultramon; but no success. any ideas?

thanx

you can do it but you cant move teh mouse out of the game unless you play in windowed mode. yull have to "alt+tab" out of the game to scroll on the guied
