Dual screen?

Im not sure if this has been answered somewhere else or its really obvious, but i cant find it.... anywhoooo

is it possible to run GW across 2 monitors? I recall seeing screenshots of someone running GW panned across 3 screens, but im not sure. how do you do this? what are the limitations?


thanks for any answers.

You could use windows built in display settings.

XP: Right click Background > properties > settings then use the checkbox (i dont have 2 monitors plugged in ATM)

im hoping that GW2 has a splitting option so that i can get a cheap secondary display for my HUD (eg fullscreen minimap)

any info on this?

I really dont care if you are running dual screens. i am to. can you run GW on dual screens?

yes you can coloneh but you'll have to run GW in windowed mode and then resize the window if i recall right (i'll check tomorrow with my second screen (if it doesn't go black when switching resolutions again >.<))

tried that. the window will only drag as big as the screen resolution is set to, so it keeps its aspect ratio.

hmmm strange how is you're dual screen config set up? cause i've used that trick for alot of games

I run dual 19" LCDs, as well, and I usually run GWs on the primary 19" wide 1440x900. I am not aware of any way to use both screens to display GWs.

My frames usually drop about 50% when I let the other screen on. (I use ultramon, of course, to handle both screens. You can easily "turn off", or not use the second screen whenever you desire.)

That's just me, and i'm still running AGP bus cards.

I am running a 19" LCD at 1440x900 along with my old 17" crt at 1024x768. I have mostly just been running winamp and chat programs on the crt.

I've never used one, but I'd probably give one a try if I went dual/triple display.

/edit
Ummm...yeah a little pricey, and out of stock.
