SYMPTOMS
If you run Segasoft Obsidian when multiple monitors are connected to your computer, only a portion of the program is displayed at the top of your primary monitor's screen.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because Obsidian does not support the use of multiple monitors.



RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, disable multiple-monitor support, start Obsidian, and then re-enable multiple-monitor support. To do so, follow these steps:


 * 1) Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double- click Display.
 * 2) Click the Settings tab.
 * 3) In the Display box, click the adapter you want to disable, click the "Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor" check box to clear it, and then click OK.
 * 4) Start Obsidian.
 * 5) Repeat steps 1-3, clicking the "Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor" check box to select it in step 3.
