Dual Displays and suuucchh

[Mission]

So, ive got dual displays...and i was wondering how i can make this work. its all plugged in...i have it set to DualView mode...not span or clone or anything. is there anyway i can say...run a game on my main monitor...and then have my desktop on my second monitor...and have some sort of way to tab between them without having to minimize the game on my main monitor?

Hi, sorry you had to bump twice in 5 hours ...

There is no easy way to do this, but with ID games (like Doom 3 and WolfET and such) when you open the console, your mouse cursor is released from the game, so it can do what you want.

Well if you run the game in "Windows mode" not full screen, you can just take your mouse and do whatever stuff in the secondary monitor without minmizing your game, but you wont be able to control whatever in the game.

From reading the post above, I would suggest running the game in windowed mode at the same resolution as your monitor. That would give you full screen gaming with the ability to move your mouse into the next monitor
