Yes you can but why bother? You can play all your games through TH2G on a single screen. I do it all the time.

When you're using both DVI's you will have 2 monitors in your display properties. Just disable one of them or change which one of the 2 is primary before you play the game.

My monitors support 1680X1050, but with the TH2Go connected that isn't an option. Can I somehow force it to be an option?

which video card are you using. There is a way to force resolutions on nvidia cards.

The Triplehead2Go imakes Windows think your maximum single-screen resolution is 1280x1024, because that is 1/3rd of the max resolution of the device. If you add a custom resolution of 1680x1050, that will probably work.

How to add a custom resolution is, in a sense, what I've been asking all along.

Ahem.

How do I add a custom resolution?

EDIT:

PowerStrip lets me add in custom resolutions, but when I try to switch to 1680x1050 nothing happens.
