Hey, I'm getting tired of having to manually disable and change contrast, color, icons and backgrounds, etc. on my secondary display when I play games because when it's enabled games don't play. Is there an option in Nview where it will sense when there's a 3d/fullscreen app playing and disable the second monitor if the app doesn't need to use it? Thanks
 
i think you must deactivate dual view in the drivers and use single which is your monitor.
 
But how do I do that? And I don't want it permanently disabled, only when I play games.
