pfft,

This is brilliant!

For those who are to dumb to undertand and decide to make a comment on a vid of some1 trying to help you!, just go to Control Panel>Display>(If windows 7 go to adjust resolution) then click your secondary monitor. If you dont know which one it is, click identify!>Then where it has the drop down box of 'Extend Desktop to this monitor' And click show monitor 1 only.

Simples :) BTW Works if you have a tablet and are trying to draw on sai! :D

Hope This Helps
