Opening programs/full screen games on dual monitors?

Ok, thanks tremmor, works perfectly. :)

Another question though - I had dual monitors set up so that I could be playing a game in full screen on the left side, but be able to use skype/check email/look up walkthroughs etc on the right. But whenever I DO play a game in full-screen, the mouse gets 'trapped' on the one monitor, and I can't move it across. Is there any solution? All the internet says is play it in "windowed"; but that's exactly what I want to get away from. Help?

Take it out of full screen mode on the monitor ya want. Make it a 1/8 smaller (resize) then close the program on that monitor. Next time you restart it will start over there. Or drag the icon to the monitor ya want to use it on. Think that will work too in full size.

You may need a dual monitor program to achieve this.
 
I don't game and this works fine. Never the less try as mentioned or look at Ultramon.
I use it because its convenient for other things i do. There is a free ver that was available. that might work. or the pay is a trial and 30 days.
