Monitor frequency only as fast as the slowest monitor

[coco2]

In a multi-monitor setup if I run my game on a 165hz monitor the frame rate will only be as fast as the other monitor 60hz. When I turn off the 60hz monitor and just have the 165hz monitor running the game runs at 165 FPS. Is this normal or a bug in Purebasic?

Did you use SetFramerate() ?

Yes I'm using SetFrameRate()

When I set the 165 Hz monitor to the main monitor then it will run the game at 165 FPS.

I'm wondering if there's a way to have the 165 Hz monitor as secondary and run the game at 165 FPS.

I have found the problem. When you have "Enable DPI Aware Executable" checked in Compiler Options, if your second monitor is a higher frequency than your main monitor, FlipBuffers() will only allow a frame rate of the slower monitor. I'm not sure if this is a bug or a limitation of Windows. Can anyone advise?
