Hi,
I am using ultramon with two 22' screen.
My pc :
Core duo 2 6300
4GB RAM
ATI X1900 256MB
3HDD (one for system, one for program, one for game)
Motherboard : Asus P5K
Win XP SP2
Well i've getting trouble with something, i play World of warcraft, and i got about 70 to 100 fps on the first screen. Then when i use ultramon to switch it on the second screen i only got max 20 fps.
Someone can tell me why? (actually the problem is that i want to get 2 instances of the game on the same time (one on each screen), and i have got about 20fps for both (which is not enough :-p).
I not shure if must by e.g. a second graphic card to make crossfire or something like that or if it is due to a the problem discribed above.
Thank for reading (and answering if you can)
Matinciel.

Unless the game has special support for multiple monitors, it won't take full advantage of hardware acceleration when moved to a secondary monitor.
This is due to the rendering being done by the 3D device for the primary monitor, then everything gets copied over to the secondary monitor.

Thanks for answer.
Well would it be better with two graphics card?
1- crossfire solution (because I got an AMD ATI)
2- one screen on each card (without any connection between the card)

No, this is a limitation of the application and would need to be fixed there.

The game, UltraMon can't help with this.
