    I cannot get games to go on the second screen, because they arent draggable games. Is there any way I can make it so the show up on the second screen?

    I'm not sure how you would do this. Maybe you could you could put the game ico onto the other screen before you click it? Why would you want it on the screen anyways? You could also just switch the monitors around? :P

    So I can have AIM and the game on at once, the other lower quality one would have AIM on it (the main monitor)

    I believe they have to be windowed in order to move them to the second screen.

    the programs will always open on the primary monitor, I don't think there is anyway to get them to open on the second monitor. And even if you do drag your buddylist or whatever to other monitor I think new windows will still pop up behind the game. I'm not sure about this though.
