So Im running visual pinball on a dual monitor display with B2S Backglass Server installed, when ever I open a table the dmd window opens behind the playfield window on my primary monitor and no matter what I do I cant get it to stay on my second display, I tried installing pinmame cabinate version, enabling the boarder  on the window, moving it to my second display and disabling the boarder but it still wont stay, I looked through the forums but none of the methods I could find worked for it. Any help at all would be great

Make sure your displays in windows are side by side, not on top of each other.

Does the DMD hang half on the first and half on the second screen? If so,

start a table, press F1, check "cabinet mode"

 

do this for all tables or better described each ROM you use.
