    From what I understand, some games/programs just don't like dual monitors and go with the main monitor.

    Yep :(

    Note that in "Windows" terms the main monitor is referred to as Primary Monitor.

    may work

    I have found, if you drag the progam your using, to the monitor you want, and close the program from that one, some will auto open in the last configuration available, not sure of games but easy to try out.
