You have to lower the resolution of the game to below that of your monitor. My monitor is set at 1920x1080 but SH4 is windowed at 1600x900. Makes modding sooooooo much easier!

wait.. you're using the second monitor to what? Search the web and stuff? while playing?
No. The game is open and running on one monitor and Solution Solver is open and ready on the other monitor. I thought, what do I know?, that I could use the SS without having to get out of the game. UBI is not going to let that happen.

I always "pause" before getting out, but that does not seem to help in my case. So there really is no need to have a second monitor.
What's a mother to do?

Ready for the answer???

Get a Microsoft Surface Pro!!! WOOT!!!! its only 1k, but this is war damn it! And whats a quick grand?

If that doesn't work, lets make an Android app, and lay our tablets on our desks, or you can use your phone if you don't have an Android tablet.

If you have An Iphone, well turn your man card in then, because Iphones are for girls.

It's twoo! It's twoo! This works great for me. But be advised: if you don't explicitly pause the game, when you mouse over to another app the sound for SH4 stops, but the game is still running.
