Opens in 2 WOW windows, not 1

[Jelloman581]

Still not working, I've tried running both Pwnboxer and Wow as admin, still no luck. I have suddenly gotten the Pwnboxer Panel to appear on Monitor 1, as it wasn't doing that before, so I guess thats progress.

Any other tips I can try? Almost done levelling 1 character the old fashioned way clicking between screens, but its painful.

Are you online right now by chance?

Well you aren't online atm, doh

I think I mentioned but its worth trying again due to windows UAC.

First, you have Vista or Windows 7, right? If you have XP, grab the specific XP file that is stickied on these forums.

For V and 7, make a new folder on your desktop, call it something unique like P2. Unzip ALL the Pwnboxer files in there. Then run it normally (assuming your user acct is admin).

OK, we're getting some progress here. I did as you said again (unzipping the files into a folder on desktop called P2). Now, the WoW.exe on Monitor 1 DOES show on montitor 1, no matter what shape I select, but the WoW.exe for monitor 2 still appears as a windowed WoW on monitor 1. Hope that made sense...lol

I have both with Windowed mode and Maximized on, borders off. It's wierd now that Monitor 1 WoW 1 is working, but Wow 2 is on monitor 1 instead of 2.

So I tried this instead:

Moved WoW 1 to monitor 2 and WoW 2 to monitor 1. Now they both appear as full screen on Monitor 1, though the WoW 2 is correct, but not WoW 1. Here's what I see now:

I also tried this:

I noticed when moving the mouse from WoW 1 on Monitor 2 to WoW 2 and Moniotor 1, the Autofocus Game Windo on Mouse hover would work and the screens would flicker, but not vice versa.

A couple of questions:

1) Does it matter that I had installed WoW in XP, but trying to play in in Windows 7? WoW doesn't really require any registry entries or anything, and have played it and copied it from drive to drive anyways. I have a separate hard drive with all my games; some do require reinstalling in Win7 to work, but WoW doesn't. I may try a new fresh WoW install this weekend (takes forever grrrr, but with a shot)

2) I noted it before, but I have a 24" (Dell S2409W) and a 20" (Apple Cinema Display Aluminum) monitor. Would the different sizes of screen be an issue?

3) Something in NVIDIA drivers that is preventing the game from going to secondary monitor?

I'll be around all weekend, and pretty much have had skype running the whole time. I'll PM you again the ID. I really want to make this work, and I'm sure it's something stupid. I'll post up when I try the fresh WoW install (try to do it tomorrow night). I'll wake up early if I have to on Saturday or Sunday to get online with you, just give me enough notice!

Hope this extra info gets us closer!

Well after all that and then some, it turns out that reinstalling WoW did the trick. I guess using the same WoW install after a couple years (and through 3-4 computers and Windows installs) finally caught up to me lol. It worked perfectly after doing a fresh install on a test hard drive. Not surprised since Win7 likely didn't "know" that WoW was in the system. So time to move all the settings and get up and running again. Thanks again for all your input and I look forward to starting this up!
