one monitor into 2 ultra wide monitors

Mahmoud Asem

I have a big 48 inches display. I wanna make it 2 ultra wide monitors above each other. it seems like it'd be pretty easy but I couldn't find the software to split it just right. games go into fill screen mode and they fill the whole thing instead of just filling one virtual monitor (I want it to fill one virtual monitor but it doesn't). any suggestions?

what?

The shortcut of the Windows key and the letter P (Win+P) lets you customize where you want the display to show up:

He has a single monitor that he wants to appear as 2. Win+P is for working with 2 physical monitors and doesn't apply to his problem.

Ah, okay.

Don't know about that then, although I guess you could try to very badly emulate it by making one window take up half the space and the other the other half.

One very convoluted way… get a capture device like a Elgato HD60S or better, one video output from GPU to the monitor, HDMI to the capture device and then you can have a fixed size live preview that could be using Window Snap to just bottom half. That's the only I can think of right now.
