Graphics Help with dual monitor setup

Hi peeps,

Need help configuring my dual monitor setup, I don't know if i'm being completely retarded, but i've set my monitors up, and they're both displaying the right identification numbers when I click identify in Display properties -> settings.

Basically what's happening is, when i'm using the 2nd monitor, and open, say a properties box, the box will appear on the left monitor (1). Is there any way to tell xp to open actions on the same monitor ?

Also, when i'm playing world of warcraft, i'd like to leave IRC and thottbot open on the right hand monitor (2) but i'm struggling to find a way to let the mouse move over to the 2nd screen while WoW is active on the left (1).

Thanks for any advice in advance

From what I remember, to get an app to remember where it was it's hard with XP on it's own (read: hit and miss), but Ultramon Works a treat. Lets you extend the task bar and group applications by monitor. So whatever is on #2 is on the right taskbar.

As for the WoW problem, don't play WoW

Thanks for the advice on the Sw, seems to do exactly what i wanted.

I figured outthe WoW screen issue anyways if anyone is interested, go into video options from within WoW, then click windowed mode and maximised, wow will still run full screen but your cursor isn't locked to it


Thanks again doug
