A question about dual monitor setup.

[Siveria]

I wasn't exactly sure where this would go, since it crosses several sections, so I decided to put it here in general.

I wanna run a dual monitor setup, now I know how to set it up, but what I want to do is, have a screensaver that will only show up on the 2nd monitor when the mouse hasn't been on it for a time. But I don't want that screensaver to close if mouse is moved or keyboard is used on the main monitor, is this doable somehow? if so how? Also can you suggest a place to get some screensavers? Don't have to be super fancy but something with some basic 3d shapes or something. I have a geforce 970 4g from msi so I am sure a screensaver is not even going to dent its preformance in games.

As always thanks all and happy new year everyone!

I don't think I've seen ANY OS with the screensaver options that you'd like. There may be a third-party out there who is thinking about this, but I have to believe that if someone managed to write one, a lot more people would be talking about it. Personally, I think it's a great idea though.

Ahh no programs that could do it? I mean I would just leave it on there but it'll burn in.

Screens don't burn like they did back in the day. Screensavers did actually save the CRT screen once upon a time, but now are just cosmetic. You used to see the occasional old ATM with a ghost image, but most have been swapped out. I've heard that plasma TVs can burn . . .
