Dual montors! Need advice

#1

Hey guys. Just got around to plugging in my old monitor with my new monitor, My new monitor is a 23" LED screen 1920x1080p and my old monitor is like a 16 or 17" screen that can only run max 1440x900 res. i just wanna make it so when im in a game screen i can hit a hotkey and it will keep the game screen maximised on monitor 1 and put the cursor on monitor 2 so i can browse the web or change song or mess with whatever programme i have open. any advice guys? im stumped as to how i can do it if its even possible

Download an app called Ultramon - there’s a hotkey section which allow you to set up a number of different hotkeys.

Also gives you a second task bar for the second monitor.

Right click on icon that looks like 2 monitors in your system tray near the clock, hit options, and then the hotkeys tab

i’m using display fusion not sure if it does that as i have 2x 24’s keep an eye on your gpu temps for duals as well seeing most new cards don’t idle well with 2
