Scrolling with Dual Monitors...

[Max_x_fire]

Hi,

Just came back to playing Civ4 after realising there was a new patch. My system has been upgraded since and now surpasses the required specifications for the game but I also now have a dual monitor setup...

Now, most games I've played with my dual monitor setup have locked my usage to the monitor being used by the game. i.e. I cant move the mouse out of that monitor until I alt+tab.

Why does Civ4 not do this in fullscreen mode?

I know there are options to run the game in windowed mode and allow it to let me scroll but doing that gives me some nasty sound lags when scrolling as my CPU cant quite figure out what to give priority too. Also, the game looks rubbish in a 1024x768 window when the monitor does 1280x768!!

Does anyone have any up to date ideas on this? Please?? I want to play my game but dont want to unplug my second monitor!

Thanks

PS. If anyone needs more information please just ask.

Can't you just disable the second monitor will you play CIV through the display settings window from the desktop?

I play CIV in fullscreen with a second monitor running and have no problems with scrolling. Have you set the fullcreen option in game or just maximized the window?
