    Does anyone know how to keep a video in 'full screen mode' when running both monitors at the same time?

    Say your playing poker on 1 monitor and watching march madness on the other. When I expand the game to 'full screen' on the one, and go back to playing on the other, when I click on the other, the game goes back to normal size and exits out of 'full screen mode' automatically.

    Maybe thats just how it is, but was wondering if anyone had a solution.

    Thank you.

    I use to have the same problem. I removed Display Fusion and now it stays in full screen mode. Not sure if you have a program like that running but just an idea.

    This annoyed me for a long time but since i installed service pack 2 it sorted itself out and now I can watch with no probs. Installed the most recent flash player around the same time so maybe it was that that fixed it. not sure. Install both and should be fine.
