This software is amazing, but I'm having some problems with full screen games. One of my monitors is crappy, one is decent. So usually, I try to play games in the decent monitor, doing normal tasks in the crappy monitor. But I've had so many problems trying to move a game from one monitor to the other.
Sometimes it doesn't do it at all. Or it moves to the second monitor and freezes with a responding copy still in the first monitor. I can still control the frozen copy if I can guess where the buttons might be, while the one on the first monitor is responding fine, I can't control it from there...

And one more thing, I've figured out a few ways to 'trick' it. Rather, force one program onto another screen by switching the primary and shutting off the new secondary, then turning it back on and making it the primary again. But it doesn't always work and sometimes it messes up the desktop a whole lot...

UltraMon usually can't move games, changing the primary monitor is usually the only option to do this.
If you get drawing errors after changing the primary monitor, my guess would be that this is a video card driver issue.

It moves a majority of the games that I use. It's a select few that really want to be a pain in the ass. I'm using an nVidia 8800 GT graphics card, and that's about as much as I know in that area...

I'm having the same problem, but not with games.
We're using two monitors, one to work and one to view camera's on (axis camera station). The problem is that when I select "monitor" in the camera station (a function to go fullscreen), it pops up at monitor 1. Even when monitor 2 is selected as primary monitor. This problem started occuring since a week ago but before that it worked fine. I haven't changed any settings apart from the primary monitor setting.
If someone could help me with this I'd be very glad.

Did you already try moving the window to the other monitor via a Move Window hotkey (UltraMon Options > Hotkeys)? This does work with some fullscreen applications.
