Everything opens on my main laptop one. I want to run a game on my second monitor whilst using my first for other stuff. How can I get my game from my default monitor to my secondary monitor? I've checked the preferences to no avail.

Thanks for the help. tait Posted at 9:31 am on Oct. 1, 2008 You need DX10 for that I think. Or maybe not. It will require a lot of power from your cpu anyway.

I tried but the option is greyed out, does this mean there is no way to do it at all?

An external monitor doesn't qualify as another computer, and I don't think you can do two things at once. I don't think it's possible. Yes, you can. noraa Posted at 9:17 am on Oct. 1, 2008 You can't, that would require two computers.
