Dual Monitor Issue

This issue is still occurring for me (always has in FF). I use DisplayFusion to manage my screens (edit: it actually occurs on another PC which I don't use it on too).

The -w -h launch options fix doesn't seem to do anything. Any other workarounds? Pretty much disabling the 2nd monitor is the only thing that works for me, which is somewhat annoying.

Cheers!

Unfortunately, I can't be of much help, as I've never run into this (I use DisplayFusion as well).

Did a little more testing - only seems to happen at native res? (1920x1200)

Additional: 1920x1200 works fine in a window, but if I go back into fullscreen before joining a game, HL2.exe crashes.

I have the same issue. Rather annoying.

Why do a ton of games/mods pretty much break if you hook up more than one monitor? Neotokyo and a bunch of other games have the same problem.

Strange that it hasn't happened to me once in the past 6 years. Been on dual monitors on various computers/laptops with various OS as well.

Only the Steam version of the game gives me this issue.

Also NeoTokyo just crashes on start instead of crashing when I attempt to join a server.

EDIT- Okay, now for some reason the game doesn't crash when I try to join a server. Weird stuff.
