Am ont sure on that but i think not all games support two screens. Here are some games i know support dual monitors:


MS Flight Simulator 2004 (as mentioned)
StarTrek Amarda II
StarWarsGalaxies
Serious Sam - The Second Encounter
Sub Command

I believe you can set it up so that you could have a game on one screen and say desktop with IM on the other.

Well it may stretch the games or it may have black blocks around it like dvds when not played widescreen tvs.

Have a look here for a list of widescreen games:
