Dual Monitors and W98

TXTad · 20th November 2000, 09:16

I'm running two monitors on my W98 system on a Compaq Presario. The primary display is a Voodoo 3 3000, the secondary is the built in crummy adapter, an SiS something, I think. Anyway, If Winamp is on the secondary display and I collapse one of the Winamp components to a "title" bar, Winamp gets confused and redraws itself over on the primary display. There are no such problems if Winamp is already on the primary display.

Well, I discovered that setting "Multi-Monitor and Litestep VWM Compatible mode" helps, but does not solve this problem. With that option checked, Winamp doesn't jump back to the primary display, but now if I minimize one compoent to a title bar, the others don't follow it down, so the displays become separated.
