Have you tried using Windowed mode?

The very point of exclusive fullscreen is to lock it the active monitors and allow your videocard to properly hook into it (unlike borderless windowed mode, which is utter kitten and not recognized as a real application by the hardware).

If you want a quick move while the game is still visible, use alt+enter instead of alt+tab. This change it to windowed mode. Do it again to go fullscreen. GW2 is pretty good in that loading time is next to nothing when doing it (some games reload everything and takes minutes when swapping)

How to control your mouse to monitor situation in Windows is fairly easy. Right click on your desk top and choose screen resolution. At the top you will see your monitors check which one is which by identifying them . once you do left click and hold one of the monitors and place it on whatever side you want it to be. You can also put it on top or bottom of your main monitor. Extend the desktop on to the one you do not want to use for your main. If your main is wrong on the one you want as a main there is a check box for that under the resolution stats. Make this my main Display. Then when you have it all set up for yourself how you want it hit apply. Once you do it will ask if you want to keep the changes if you did it right choose yes.
That’s it simple to do no special programs needed.

Run as windowed mode. If you’re full screen your mouse won’t leave thes creen. If you are trying to stretch it across both screens you can’t. To do this would require 2 identical video cards and 3 monitors.

Chuck, it can be done with a single high end video card that supports either AMD eyefinity or the Nvidia equivalent. For years I played in 5760*1080 on an AMD 7950 3GB.
