I have a g400 and plugged my 2 monitors on it with dualhead and BTW, it rocks. I would like to know if I can run the application in one monitor and debug the fullscreen app in the second. If it is, plz tell me how!!!

Thnx in advance

Yes, you can... or at least, I can.

I'm running a multimon setup with a V550 and another generic (=crap) video card. I put my IDE on the secondary monitor, and run my game full-screen in the first. There's an option in the DirectX control panel called "multimonitor debugging" or something - look for it and turn it on... assuming the dual-head card works as I think it does, you should be good to go.
