Dual Monitor Gameplay

[buglenutsman]

Ive got an ATI radeon x700 pro, and it has dual monitor capabilities on it. i was wondering, is there a way i can play the game and surf the web at the same time, because i would like to surf the forums while BF2 is loading...but everytime i try to click on the website, BF2 minimizes on the other screen...anyone?

probably needs a dual core processor lol, that would be sloooow

Yeah I get the same thing, I don't know of any way around that, because basically when you click on another app it causes the game to lose focus, which is why it minimizes.

I get the same problem.
just use the second screen for TS or Vent while playing. its not much use for anything else while gaming.

isnt there a way to run bf2 in separate window, that way you can set resolution to look like fullscreen, but when you click it wont minimize...you think that is possible?

Exactly what I do.

I run TeamSpeak and the BF2CC on my 2nd monitor. If I need to access it I just minimize BF2.

Edit: Running a X800XT video card.

Dual monitor works that well? Hmm...guess I need to try this

Run in windowed mode and you can do it. The bad part about that is if you don't use the same resolution as your desktop it can potentially be a pretty small window.
