Hi Guys,

im new here, literally just got the third monitor here, and waiting for the mount to get here tomorrow before i set up the surround, when a question raised :

the game i play most of the time is Starcraft 2. and i want to play it on the central monitor, while the other 2 monitors show maybe email, or a video... which i can do
if i dont turn on the surround, but since i am now going to for the first time, im wondering if that wont work anymore ?

looking at the 301.24 drivers, it seems like a fullscreen windowed, should be snapped to a monitor of my choice if i understand correctly, and i wonder if anyone can confirm that.
if not, i guess i just have to live without surround feature enabled :


thanks !

here is my experiment using the 301.24 BETA drivers.

2 options :
- works in fullscreen, and takes the SLI power to the center screen, but blanks the 2 other screens, and i usually like to use others for skype,chat,etc ... so this is ok only for special occasions
- works in windowed mode, but for now there is a surround bug on the 301.24 beta which means that the taskbar is always on top ... so this is really bad since i cant mouse-scroll down the screen and easy to misclick on taskbar icons.

i really hope they solve the taskbar-on-top thing, and also the general maximize to specific monitor thing ( specifically im having a problem with remote-desktop ) but once its done, it will be sweet.
