Play on 2nd moniter?

X-Cellerator

Is there any way you can switch the game to the 2nd monitor?
I have tried and cannot figure it out. My right monitor is my main and left as a secondary. The game wants to play on main. I want it on the other side.

Maybe physically grab it in windowed mode drag it over maximize exit and hope it restarts there.

Nau tried that. It snapes back over. I have been looking in the ini file with no luck. Was just wondering if any of the codes here knew a line I could add.

Didn't work thanks for trying. Such an old game they do not have the code in the settings yet.
I just do not want my left monitor to be the main monitor. I guess I just might have too though.

In some cases, pressing:
[Windows Logo]+[Ctrl]+[SHIFT]+B
may solve the problem.
If initialization doesn't work try this hotkey:
[Windows Logo]+P

If you are running window there may be a way to edit the shortcut to do this.

Didnt work. I am just going to make my left the main and call it a day.
It feels real weird playing on the right side. I guess I could also just slide over to the right side of the L desk and play on the RIG with only 1 monitor too 🙂

Okay... how about more details?
I mean e.g. what cables do you use to connect them to the PC? What graphics card(s) are you using? Haven't you had a problem with it before? Maybe you installed some windows update or installed graphics card drivers recently? There are a lot of things that can cause this kind of problem. It can be a setting in windows or in the graphics card settings or even in the bios itself. It's also possible that you have enabled the tab to extend only one desktop and not separate desktops to one monitor...
...or maybe you just need to switch/swap the monitor cables on the graphics card 🙂
......and when you press [Windows Logo]+[Tab] what is then displayed?

May be open issue ?

I think devs can solve this...

you could just swap the display port or hdmi ports around

Everything is connected right. I am using two Odyssey G7 4k Monitors with a wixmix on the side for my PC Monitoring.
The only way I can play ut on the left monitor is to set it as the main. I only have the taskbar showing on the main. I like the other two with out it. I am also using DPI not HDMI. I run them at 2460x1440 only because games play better.

As of now I just set mt left to the main and stopped trying to figure out how to make ut play on either one.
My right is for programs and surfing while I play on the left.

Here is a picture of what it looks like.

In case you're wondering what I meant by Monitoring panel. Its running ADIA64 and I designed the layout in photoshop
