How can i do this? I have my Laptop connected via HDMI to my monitor- Strangerthan7 years agoRising VanguardI do that, but I just put sims 4 in windowed mode and have two windows open on the same screen. No idea how to do it any other way!

Just make sure your computers CPU and RAM can keep up with the multitasking. May slow performance depending on your computer. - GalacticGal7 years agoLegendThe real question for me is why would you want to? I listen to talk radio while I'm playing. I can't even imagine splitting my attention between two screens! But, to each their own, I suppose. ;)
- Another thing you could do is if you have a tablet, put what you want to watch on there. That’s what I do.
- I usually have my ps4 streaming Twitch while I'm playing. Listening to the streamer talking to her subs and watchers is almost like me out in the real world instead of sequestered away playing sims lol

Sounded like the OP was trying to set up dual monitors with their laptop & TV.
But if the larger TV screen is not a must for this person and they just want to multitask then ditto just use another device on the side like a smartphone or a tablet. I used my phone years ago before I had a tablet. Now I prop my tablet up in front of me. I don't have the desk space for a second monitor at this time so for now, I use a tablet. - catmando8307 years agoSeasoned AceI do it all the time - play on my laptop, watch TV, Netflix, etc. on my 75" TV ;)

There's also a "windowed full screen" mode or something like that, but I just always use windowed and maximize it.
