diablo Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Dear SI (always start nice, it may help ), I play FM for years now (Convince them you are a die-hard fan ), but since the new release, I have a problem. I play FM always in maximized windowed mode, so I can do other things while waiting (f.e. working ). But in the demo of FM09, this is not possible for me. I can select windowed mode, but then when I'm trying to maximize the screen, he tries to maximize it over my two screens (I have a dual screen ). And that's not the goal of my dual screen. So my question is : Is this the same in the full version, and is there a way to fix it? I already tried to make the screen bigger by dragging the edges, but then he just "zooms" on the screen, which is no solution of course! Thank you in advance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hobgob Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I have no issue like that. However whenever FM09 isn't at the forefront the progress bar doesn't continue. So I have to watch the game for time to pass... Makes browsing the net at the same time rather tedious. Hobgob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

diablo Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Ok, it's fixed now on 1 screen... My 17 inch screen works now, the 19 inch still maximize it over 2 screens. But hey, I can live with this solution Thank you for the help! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arjwiz Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I have the same problem as the OP on my demo. On the primary screen, maximising stretches it across both screens. On the second screen, however, I am able to maximise it perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
