Second Monitor?

[fola7745]

How can I move the performance monitor to my second monitor? Google searches turned up a forums post from version 4 that I attempted. Went into the "main" config file and set the position as such

 

[MonitorPosition]

Left=2000

Top=22

 

However, this didn't work, I tried negative values, larger values, smaller values... Can't get the performance monitor on my second monitor. Both my monitors are 1920x1080, I run windows 7 ultimate and use the option to "extend monitor to second display"

 

I'd really like to use this product but it's useless to me unless I can get it over there. Halp?

 

P.S. I did try to search this forum but came up empty handed.

I found this too, but it didn't do any good. As soon as I closed the PM it went back to normal settings. I even checked to make sure my graphics card was set to multi-monitors for this program. Still locked on main screen. And yes I would like to see this monitor while playing full screen games on main monitor.

Hi Hhendel

Welcome. Please forgive the question, but I have to ask why you need the PM on your second monitor. I cannot see any advantage in this. Is your second monitor so far away from your main monitor that you need PM on it in order to see your systems status.

I would like to be able to monitor the system while I have main monitor in full screen mode (not windowed), such as playing a mmo game.

Looking to see what I can do to improve performance.

[Scannan]

Would it not be easier to play the game in full screen mode on the second monitor and leave the PM on the main monitor.

[Hhendel]

LOL. I supose I could reverse the monitor designation. But the secound monitor is smaller.....but, no...:?

[Hhendel]

There's gotta be a lock somewhere. All the other ASC screens move from monitor to monitor.

[Scannan]

Did you try simply dragging the PM across to the other screen. Sometimes the simple things work.

Also have a look at This link and This link. May give you some ideas.

[Hhendel]

Thanks Scannan. No. I'll stumble onto it someday. In the meantime, no biggy.

 

It's just that all the other screens slide from monitor to monitor with no problem.

Don't under stand why this 'part' of ASC would act different.

 

Thanks anyway.

 

It's just one of those why, why, why questions :-?...:-D

Sorry, I could not help more, but this is obviously an issue relating to the Video Card protocols, and that is a very complex area. Maybe you should send the question directly to Iobit. You can reference this thread. They are very good at helping with this stuff for forum members. You can send it to: support@iobit.com

Hi All,

 

We'd like to let you know that presently, Performance Monitor can only be placed on the main monitor. :mrgreen:

 

However, I will let our program team know for consideration.

 

Thanks in advance.:-D

[Hhendel]

Thank you for responding. 8-) I had come to that conclusion. But thought there might be an unlock somewhere.

The reason I was after this is because the MMO I play only loads (fullscreen) on the main monitor which covers up EVERYTHING...:?. And game is imposible in windowed mode. :roll:
