Hello, I'm setting up a gaming PC with two 1080p monitors. I want one for full-screen gaming and the other for tasks like controlling Teamspeak, Spotify, or battle screens. I need the mouse to stay on the secondary monitor during gameplay so I can switch it easily without moving it. I'm aiming for a setup that lets me control the secondary screen while keeping the mouse fixed there. Please let me know if you need any help with the configuration. Thanks, Ethan.

It seems A;t+F1 lets you utilize your keyboard, so you can switch to the second screen.

Optimal approach is to enable a windowed mode for the game. This reduces the time required for playability. As far as I recall, switching between screens works via Windows + P, though I might be mistaken about that.

You might choose to work in a borderless windowed environment and configure the Battlefield Map feature...

You're experiencing this when playing in a windowed, borderless interface with alt-tab enabled. The audio stops, but you can still observe the activity.

Using alt-tab occasionally would be beneficial, I should rely on it more frequently.

Win+P switches the display settings. Additional options include extending and duplicating features.

Battlescreen functions properly when the server supports it and the minimap is active. Using it on any HC server with a second monitor will mainly help track stats. If you don’t have it yet, install the BetterBattlelog add-on for your browser—it improves the overall experience.
