Dual Monitor support in WinXP

[Ben Staab]

Hi All,

I am developing an eprime experiment that will be run on a Dual Monitor
Windows XP machine.  However, I haven't been able to find a solution to a
rather annoying problem.  Because of the physical setup of the testing
environment, I need to be able to do the initial data collection (subject
ID, name, etc) on one monitor, and show the experiment's screens on the
other monitor.

Right now, the keyboard has to be carried around a corner to do the data
entry before the experiment begins.  I have looked at doing all the data
collection myself using an InputBox and hardcoding the x,y
position.  However, I haven't quite gotten that to work.  The inputBox
always shows up on the "wrong" monitor no matter what x value I give it.

A related issue is it would be really great if I could do the subject ID
and all at the end instead of the beginning of the experiment.  Any Ideas
on how to do that?

If anyone has any suggestions for either of these problems, please let me know.
