Hello people, ive been googling for 3 hours and NO ONE answer this question.

As the topic states. I have two monitors, one in 2560x1440 and one old on 1920 x 1080. I use windows 10 (NEVER upgrade to windows ten is horrible to navigate in because of "user friendlieness"). I use Geforce GTX 980 card with geforce experience and nvidia control panel.

Now. I reckon I can make this work if i set my "desktop" resolution on my 2560x1440 to 1920x1080 and drag the windowed mode eve onto both monitors. But I dont want to downscale EVE.

Because if i do this now
1. Set eve to window mode
2. Drag the eve screen onto both monitors.

Then im left with a chunk on my big monitor where i can see my desktop, which is annoying as hell. OR i make the screen so it fits my big monitor but then a part is left out on the small one. See my problem?

Any response that helps this will be awesome.

Cheers

you either have to adapt eves resolution when you move it to anothr monitor with a lower/higher resolution than the original or you deal with the issues you mentioned above, we discussed something like that on our ts as well and agreed that having different resolutions on your monitors sucks for gaming in window mode :)

So fix is buy a set of identical monitors -> fixxed \o/
