Just got a quick question about dual screening. (Yes i am a noob)

I always see Youtubers and streamers with multi monitor set ups running off a single tower, now my question is, when they're playing a game i.e WoW, DayZ, Diablo 3, Guild Wars 2, when they play the game in full screen why does it not cover all the screens they have?

Is there a setting or a programme you need to download when dual monitoring to stop the games from covering all the screen as ideally one would be used to game one would be used to have facebook/TS viewable when playing to avoid ALT Tabbing all the time.

Thanks

no what you do is extend your desktop so when the game is running it will only cover one screen anyway.

Just change screen settings to extend desktop. Games will stay on 1 screen then.

imo there really no point in dual screening unless your doing something and your game is fullscreen then use extend destop and it should work and games should be on the main monotor
