i use my comp for both work and play.. sometimes at the same time! is there a way to use media portal on one screen while still having full use of windows on the other?
It can be run on the primary monitor fine, and you can work on the second. It wil not run with a game running though as both will require DirectX acceleration (and DirectX can only accelerate one application at a time).
FWIW - I can run MP on either of my 2 monitors - in windowed mode or maximized mode - but not fullscreen. I can move the MP window from one monitor to the other without any problems.
