Game can not start with second monitorMorgenstern7204/02/2010 - 16:21

I have a 21" CRT (yes, old fashioned, but much better than most TFTs) and a Beamer as secondary monitor.
As long as the Beamer is configured to extend my desktop, the game can not start. Screen is going black, than swaps back to dekstop, black againe, swapping back again and so on.

I don't want to disable my Beamer only for this game...please help.

Thx alot

Windows 7 64 Bit

Wolrd of Goo doesn't support dual monitors, sorry, there is no fix for that. Try searching the forum before you post next time ;)

It works for me
I have a dual screen extended desktop
After manually setting the resolution in the config.txt to match the main monitor's the game worked

To clarify, you play the game on one screen, not stretched over two
Never tried running it over 2 screens, it beats my point of having two :)

Nono, I just want it on my main monitor :)
