FPS on 2nd screen

[Enti]

K well as you know I'm starting dual-boxing.
I do half screen for each screen on 24" monitor, the left one being the one I main as, other on follow.
The left one usually has around 35-45 FPS staying in that region, however the right one is sitting at around 15-20 FPS max compared to the one on the left. any way I can either make both stay around the same or boost up the one on the right?

Using XP?

Use Horizontal span instead of Dual View, see if this improves your FPS.

That the only way? Horizontal looks pretty ugly to me, I like them being closer to square if it's dual-screening not 6 inches high and 2 feet wide heh.
Wouldn't mind upgrading the FPS on my main WoW too if anyone knows some ways to tweak something up

NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT w/ 512.0 MB Display Memory with 2GB RAM, Windows XP-SP2 if you wanted to know some stuff about my comp. Tell me if you need anything else or if someone could help me get either one or both WoWs to a higher FPS

Horizontal span is a Windows Display mode and an alternative to Dual view. Not how you have your windows laid out for WoW.

Then you just have to use Maximiser to set the WOW windows so they display where you want.

Ahh okay, I'll try that, thanks.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I can't seem to find anywhere to put it in Horizontal Span unless I have 2 monitors connected.. If I have one it doesn't allow me to.. So.. yeah..

Edit: I've gotten the FPS on both boxes to be about 30-45 FPS staying there for both.. However now that my right screens FPS has improved.. it's having a slight delay it seems with keyclone.. It's /following slower, when I start a spell with a key it has like a full second delay instead of casting both the spells at the same time, and such. Any known reason for that?

I don't know about you guys, but I have 2 video cards, one monitor for each screen, and so far I can run average 30 FPS for each characters. As for 1 video card, 2 monitors, I read it on one of the sticky, that you run first character into game, and switch your primary/secondary monitor, and run your second character, the FPS will stay the same.

This guy has 1 monitor.

He's split a wide display in half...

1920x1200 display split as two 960x1200 windows... (or 1680x1050 split, etc).

I think what you are seeing is that windows gives the primary focus more resources than other windows. As long as you are above 10-15fps it shouldn't matter.
