heRO On Second Monitor

I have a quite particular problem. I use two monitors, and run heRO windowed so I can use Trillian and heRO at the same time. (it makes Alt+Tab easier and faster) I like to have Trillian on my first/main monitor, but for some reason I cannot get heRO to work on the second monitor. I get a still image. I have tried many things, and am out of options. Any support would be much appreciated

RE: heRO On Second Monitor

What happens if you start hero windowed on your first monitor and then drag it to the second?

Sorry I'm not too familiar with 2-screen, I only ever used one, but I've seen other people use that and it seemed to work good for them (no RO, but their work stuff).

The only suggestion I have is to play with the setup.exe I guess, but it's very possible RO doesn't support this.

RE: heRO On Second Monitor

I have not heard of this problem 8/ tho i often do dual screen work for playing movies, if you say ur RO freezes on the other monitor i would gather the problem could be caused by driver error, a error in setup, or possibly even an error/confliction in some codecs you have on your system...

RO Does not freeze....what is shown is a still image...once I drag it back over to the first monitor, all is well. It is almost as though RO doesn't refresh when it is on the second monitor.

Edit: I got it working. Thank you very much heROes. In settings, I used Direct 3D instead of my card for the graphics acceleration.
