Independent Monitor use? (8800 GTX)
Is it possible to use my 8800 GTX for like, independent monitor use?
Like my monitor for web surfing and stuff, but also use my TV (which I have hooked up as a dual "monitor") for playing my games??? Shoulden't I be able to do this??? Thanks for any help.. I ask because unless I set my TV as primary, all games play on the monitor, not the TV.. |

Games have to play on the primary monitor because of the overlay.

Yeah, I tried doing that with Guild Wars earlier.
When it went to the otherside, I thought I could put it back maximized, since it worked with browsers and such, but no, it went back onto the primary monitor

You have to play it windowed unless Ultramon can do something for you.

Ultramon is nice, but when in game I can't get the mouse to go over to the other screen.
Like the mouse is locked in the game.. |
