Dual Monitor issues

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Having an issue with standalone and dual monitors.

 

I have 2 monitors, 1 for playing games on and 1 that I watch youtube/movies etc etc on.

 

When playing standalone, I don't generally have anything running on the other monitor except maybe a webpage that i've been reading open.  Every so often my second monitor appears to attempt to switch resolution, then my monitor that is running DayZ will go black for a couple of seconds before returning (everything then seems brighter in game).  It's quite annoying as it starts happening more and more, the longer I play.  It's not a case of my cursor moving to the second monitor and clicking (because that causes the game to minimize).

 

Anyone had similar issues or know of a workaround that doesn't involve disabling my 2nd monitor (because in this day(z) and age I really shouldn't need to do that).

 

Regards

 

DR

Im playing with dual monitors and have never experienced a situation. Are the two monitors running with the same resolution? Are you playing the game in full screen with a lower resolution than what you normally are using?

Did you make sure it's not overheating?
