yes ...

setup ms-windows to run in dual mode, so you get one long ms-windows look.

run swg in windows mode.

and drag one to the left and the other to the right.

but remeber you only have one mouse and one keyboard

Hmmm, I tried that once but couldn't get the mouse to go back and forth. Any ideas?

Tried using Ultra-Mon? Used to have dual monitors a few months ago (not with swg though) but i'm sure it has an option to change windows by a key if i remember correctly

tried what once? if you see your desktop on both monitors you should also see your mouse cursor on both monitors. once again, both instances of swg have to run in windowed mode after dual monitors are enabled in windows..

I was experimenting on this idea a while ago and just for a test I setup a tv as a second screen and extended my desktop onto it but the problem I had was when looking around, normally when my mouse his the edge of the screen it moves my view but with the duel monitor it just moved my mouse pointer onto the second screen and I could only look around in one direction.

That's what I am afraid of VP, since I did a mini test with a 17" and my 19"

I have been trying to do this also...

I tried making SWG run in windowed mode, then dragging one window to monitor two but it would not allow the window to go over to the second monitor... is there some way to override that so that monitor two can be used?

Right now best I can do is run both games on monitor one then have maybe teamspeak up on monitor two.

I don't know if this is true...but I thought that I read that most 3d Video cards can only handle one instance of 3d Graphics at a time. So this would limit the use of 2 monitors at the same time. Not sure if this is true, but it sounds reasonable. I will see if I can find the information that I read.

I run MSFS 2004 on dual LCD's all the time, never had any issues at all.

If a poisonous snake is dropped on top of you from a gyrocopter, don’t freak out and shoot your own driver with your arrow gun, making the vehicle lose control and blow up. Its probably just as scared as you are.
