    When I am running WoW my second monitor gets a white box around the screen and My mouse on the WoW screen can't move onto the other screen, I have to minimize WoW again to gain control of that second screen.

    My video card the my second monitor is hooked up to is an AGP nVidia e-TNT2 and my primary monitor is hooked to my nVidia FX 5500 PCI card.
    How do I gain use of my second screen while playing WoW?

    maybe it's becuase you have both monitors attached to different cards?
    maybe you should try to play windowed mode?

    (btw just to be curious how does it play wow, you have any problem's with looking at your character like it's split in half or something?)

    i had the same problem but you have to check the box windowed mode then there another option to load like max size i forgot exactly what its called but it involves max size, but once you do that its like playing in full screen and being able to utilize both screens
