Dual monitors

[Scooby_Doo]

Ok so i got 2 monitors

now when i have a full screen application running such as a game is there something i can do that will let me move my mouse over to the 2nd monitor without having to alt tab the game like a shortcut key combo or something?

You mean like dragging a window over to the other monitor, or just move your mouse right over?

ummm, when you play a game and what not you can't move your mouse over to the 2nd monitor cuz well that wouldn't work like try playing cod and the mouse keeps going over to the other screen, what i want is to have like a a short cut key combo that will switch my mouse over to the 2nd screen to browse the net or what not while keeping the main screen maximised. Can only move my mouse over to the 2nd screen if i alt tab from the main screen.

Well, you can set certain applications to always run on the monitor of your choice, so the other monitor will be available (with your mouse pointer in it) while the app is running. It works for me. For example, watching a DVD on the one, and on the other my mouse and desktop is available to run other apps.

Yeah its just that when you have something like a game it prevents the mouse moving from the main screen to the 2ndary screen.
