According to EA multi-monitor configurations are supported:

http://yodashelpdesk.lucasarts.com/faq.asp?sid=091616060222065167125001&pid=1491&pnm=Star%20Wars%20Empire%20at%20War&seid=4044&pos=Windows%20XP&top=Video&rid=23303

 

But I cannot find any way of enabling this in any of the options. Does anyone have any idea? I emailed Lucas Arts and got a generic contact someone else response back:

 

"The use of multi-monitor configurations is supported in the game however due to the many possible combinations of ways they can be setup with various cards and various monitors we recommend that you contact the video card manufacturer for assistance in configuring multi-monitor systems."

 

My system is working, and I do not think that I need to be contacting ATI asking them where the options are in order to enable multi-monitor support in EAW.

I don't really consider a large desktop mode to be considered a multi-monitor setup like Lucas Arts talks about, I consider that more or less tricking the game into working on 2 monitors.  Also I cannot seem to see a way to get my ATI x700 pro to do this in windows, but that is how my desktop is set up in linux.  Any idea how to do this?
