June 14, 201213 yr Is anyone using Flight on Windows 8 Release Preview with dual screens? I prefer to have Flight on my secondary display as it runs at higher resolution. When I launch Flight, it comes up on my secondary display, but there is an 3" strip of black down the left side of the screen and the Flight window is off center. I have to go to the Devices slide out pane and choose Second Screen only before launching Flight. Just wondering if anyone else experiences this issue? I assume an nVidia driver update for Windows 8 will probably hopefully fix it.
June 14, 201213 yr Doesn't the nvidia control panel have a screen for manually centering a display in that situation? We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

June 14, 201213 yr Author It does, but not in this case. Its as if windows is telling the driver that the edge of the window is 3 inches over from where it should be. I don't have any other flight like games installed to test with a different program, but maybe i'll try with installing FSX or Battlefield tonight
June 21, 201213 yr Author I tried updating to the Nvidia beta drivers for Windows 8, but no difference. Heres a screen cap of what its doing. Notice the desktop space on the right side, and the flight window is off center. No one else running Flight under Windows 8 with two screens?
June 21, 201213 yr Have you tried setting Flight up in windowed mode by unchecking the Full screen Box in options. Having done the latter the only way I could stop Flight from overlapping on to my second screen was to start Flight from my second monitor. I am now able to use Flight in windowed mode on my main screen and I can run something like Plan G on my second monitor. Hope you can understand what I mean.
