Executable: (SDK root)\Samples\Multimedia\DDraw\Bin
In order to run the program, you must have Windows 2000 or Windows 98 configured for multiple monitors.
The program will run on up to nine monitors. The play area is determined by the monitor configuration of your Windows desktop, which may be adjusted on the Settings tab of the Display Control Panel. The amount of video RAM you have on each video card will determine the maximum resolutions at which you will experience a reasonable frame rate. If the frame rate is slow, try exiting, lowering the resolution or color depth of your windows desktop, and restart.
Multimonitor Space Donuts supports two command-line switches:
| -w# | Put monitor number # in windowed mode |
| -s | Turn sound off |
For information on the keyboard interface, see Space Donuts.
