JUST TO BE ACCURATE: Perhaps someone has come up with a way I dont know about, but I have watched people for a long time trying to make it work that way so they could use two monitors with the game only on one screen.
If you will keep attempting this, use a Large Address Aware enabler on your empire.exe, go to properties of the empire.exe and disable full screen optimizations. Next, go into game settings and set everything down one level in detail if you are running at Ultra and you may have to go all the way down to Medium to keep the memory leak from getting you.
THAT said, I can tear this game down in detail inside and change almost everything I want to change but I cannot make it run on a dual monitor setup on one screen only when set to extended and it be stable. It can be stretched to two monitors and it can be duplicated, but assigning to one of two monitors it just does not like when you flip from screen to screen. The ONLY way I have ever managed to get it to work is using a KVM switch swapping the PC rather than the screens.
Running in a smaller window is not that bad. The only thing I've really noticed is that I cannot zoom in as far during battles for some reason. But I make the window one size bigger, 1920x1080 then I can't see all of the game interface because of the border.
Provided I'm on the Campaign Map rather than the Battle Map, I can mouse-click or ALT-TAB to another application and, at least 19 times out of 20, successfully return to the game with only a few seconds slight delay. The occasional chance of a reconnect failure means I do make sure to perform a Quick Save with CTRL-S first before switching applications.
I've now successfully run ETW, NTW, and Shogun-2 this way on two separate rigs
The game minimizes when I go to any other application on either monitor; and it displays the splash screen while the data and code are reloaded to the graphics card.

it's also free on github
Just make it so that Empire runs in a window, with the bar at the top, then let ShiftWindow move it, so that it fills the entire screen.
Thank you man i love yo
Omg thank you so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ much. Was sick of having to use a tiny window in order to see the bottom of the screen. This worked for me.
For anyone else doing this just follow the instructions on the ShiftWindow site it gives for EVE but click on Empire: Total War in the selection box and it'll do it for this.
