Now since my laptop (obviously) has its own display, I effectivly have 2 workable displays. Now of course the main thing I want to use this for is to play games on the big screen and other stuff (teamspeak, messenger, webpages) on the other monitor.

So getting to my questions.

First off is there any way of running games in full screen and being able to switch focus between monitors with out having the game task switch (alt tab) out in vista 64? I know you can sort of do it in windowed mode but that isnt exactly the best solution.

Or is there a way where I can sort of run the system as being 2 sytems with 2 sets of controls (but 1 physical machine) where i have an external mouse and keyboard to control the big screen, and the laptops controls for its screen, all with out the task focus switching in between monitors (ie task focus is individual and separate between the 2)

PS I am already aware of http://www.playxpert.com but i dont know if the widgets can be moved onto the second display that isnt displaying the game.
Yes you can. Here is your answer:
