I dont know much about computers and was wondering if anyone could help? When playing multiple games is there a way to split your screen into 2 or 4 sections? Right now my screens pop up and I have to switch back a
and forth, its driving me crazy. I use Vista.
Any info would be helpful thanks.

If you are talking about what I think you are. You can either tile your tables or cascade them. Tiling them would allow you to see all of your tables completely(up to a max amount of course) at the same time. Cascading them would organized them diagonally down your screen from left to right.

How you can do this just depends on the poker client you are playing on. Many of them have an option in the menu or with some button located on the client to do it for you. Which poker site are you looking to do this with?

Most of the time you are able to change the size of the window and move it whereever you want. Move your mouse over the edge of the window to modify its size. If you click on the bar on the top of each window and drag, you can move the window wherever you want. This way, you can have as many windows as you would like.

You could probably set them to not pop up, if that's what you're after.

Or, do you mean four screens in one, like linux?

That's an interesting one.

Could be useful for, I think it's Everest, that doesn't seem to allow me to resize the table.

2nd Monitor

I use a second monitor. If you are using a laptop ( I am) it is simpe to set up as the software is usually preinstalled for this. If you are on a desktop, you made need to do some extra research and possibly upgrade some hardware.

It depends on the site you are on, but look through their table options to see if you can tile them. Or click and drag the edges of the windows to change sizes if the site allows.

When i am playing on two different sites I just size the windows so i do not have to switch . The size of your screen may not allow you to do this if your screen is 20 or less as the cards may be hard to read.

I usually play on PS and I use the keyboard short-cut of CTRL + 9 to tile all my tables automatically. Try it! I prefer them tiled to cascade. My screen can fit 4 snugly but with 5 or more.. some of it gets lost. Will need an extra screen or something.

Thanks for the Winsplit link. Looks good. May use it for multiple clients.
