XBMC on 2nd monitor Game on the other - Moldiver - 2011-03-02

I am trying to run XBMC will i play games but when i try it the game it loads and half of xbmc dissapears to the right of my other monitor and half of the screen is my desktop. Can't find a way to keep XBMC on the full monitor while gaming

Any ideas?

Turn on "Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen".

Hi thanks that seems to have fixed it, one game made the screen go blnk but a quick alt tab and and adjust so the game window doesn't overlap both screens fixed it.

Next problem is how can i get sound from both windows. My 3d card is connected via HDMI cable to my Harman Kardon AVR 255, when i laod XBMC and play a video then load a game i get no sound from the game. Is this an XBMC config problem or something to do with my setup?
