Aces High on 2 monitors - how do I select which?
« on: December 19, 2005, 02:05:17 PM »
I recently got a new 19" flatpanel. It looks good but it bleeds when you have motion across it. That's part and parcel of the LCD world, I suppose. Anyways, is there some way to get AH to play on my CRT if my LCD is set as primary?

By primary, I mean that my LCD has my icons and my taskbar and all that jazz.

You will need to change which monitor the system sees as primary, on most system with multiple monitors you can only do hardware acceleration on your primary monitor. You should be able to set your second monitor as the primary. In XP when you select your second monitor there is a check box that says "Use this as my primary monitor" That should change it.

did you hook the flat panel up with dvi or are you using analog?
