Hi All,

I've been trying to get WC3:FT to run when in dual monitor mode (WC3 running on primary, IE and other software running ont secondary) but WC3 doesn't load up if my secondary is enabled. Everything's fine when secondary is disabled. Has anyone experienced this?

I've even tried running WC3 then ALT-TAB out to enable the secondary, but the game would hang. If secondary is disabled, the game would resume.

Can anyone help me with this?

thanks!

You could use UltraMon to automatically re-enable the secondary monitor after launching the game, this might still cause problems with the game though.

To do this, right-click the shortcut for the game, select Properties from the menu, select the UltraMon - Display tab, check 'use custom settings' and then 're-enable disabled monitors after'.

I would use a 20-second delay as a starting point, to give the game enough time to start up.

If you have installed the ATI Catalyst Control Center, you could use span mode to play the game stretched across both monitors.
