To get a game playing on the other monitor, you should change the primary monitor before starting the game, or configure the game to run on the secondary monitor (a few games offer this option).

This is a vexing problem. How does one do symmetric multi-3D acceleration with more than one vid card in a single app (game).

How to trick the cards into treating multiple frame buffers as a single buffer.

I believe that you both misunderstood the question - I think he wants to play a game and be able to just move the mouse out to reply to instant messaging programs.

Making the game think 2+ monitors are one buffer would be done at the driver level (as is done by the matrox card). I assume it would need a big redisgn for the gfx companys otherwise they would have done it by now. Only other option is to set window mode non accelerated with a very wide custom res and to span the window accross the monitors.
