Off the topic of addiction; how do you get your SE4 to reside in one monitor Devnullicus? On my dual-monitor setup SE4 keeps trying to straddle the monitors, which makes for very poor gameplay. Hence, I have to revert to single monitor mode and not use both of them. Consequently I have to alt-tab to keep notes on ideas, etc.

As an side note, I am using a Matrox G450 32Mb Dual Head graphics card with a pair of 21" monitors.

No idea. I don't do anything special. I suspect that it must be a graphics card driver issue. SE4 comes up on my main monitor and I can move the cursor across the screens normally. Works quite nicely for me, both at home (2 monitors, SE4 on left one), and at work (3 monitors, SE4 on the middle monitor).

Zen,

Yes, I wouldn't mind having those to use at least until I finish making my own
