      Hello!

      I have setup a few PUP packs and they are displaying properly on my 2nd monitor. When I try a regular backglass (directb2s) file, it loads but underneath my table on the first monitor. I opened B2S_Setup and set it to the 2nd monitor but it never goes there.

      Any idea why this might be?

      Thanks!

        Sure – read the other thread where you asked the same.

          These are different issues. The other thread is about pup files not displaying correctly because of backglass. This one is about blackglass (no pup files at all) not displaying on the 2nd monitor. From what I’ve read, backglass will display over pup files, but this doesn’t appear to be the case for me. My pup files are working great on my second monitor but the non pup pack tables the backglass is not going to the second monitor.

          Thank you

              For those interested and for those that may have this problem in the future…

              I solved this problem by changing the settings to monitor 1 even though in Windows monitor 1 is the TV that is the playfield. For some reason B2S have the screen named wrong. :yahoo:

                Yes. Windows does not always name the screens correctly. But usually will start with screen 0 as the main screen amd then go from there. Also if you update video drivers you have to reboot before it will display correctly.

                  Man I wish I would have seen this thread. Cause everything I tried wouldnt work. If they werent Pup Pack tables it wouldnt play right. I am now in the process of a factory restore. Ugh

                      Some of it’s kinda outdated. My PinDMD3 has never shown up as a monitor. I got lucky also mine shipped with 1014 firmware :)

                        Outhere,

                        By any chance is your graphics card NVIDIA?

                            Some of those links have 2016 dates. Thats all. Do you have GeForce Experience and the NVIDIA control panel installed? Im kinda hesitant because I installed those, day 1 everything played real well. Turned it off, went to sleep and work, came home nothing would display corectly except for Pinup Popper, Pup Pack tables, and Pinball FX3. The restore just finished and Im installing everything again.
