Run a game w/ the verbose option and check the display info, sometimes video drivers don't report that correctly.. so it may be //.DISPLAY4 instead or whatever.
Actually, try \\.\DISPLAY2 instead, per the mame.ini.

Nevermind. He only wanted to do that on 1 screen, not 2 at the same time.

try like this in mame.ini:
numscreens 2
resolution0 1360x768
resolution1 640x480
use resolution of your monitors instead of 1360x768 and 640x480.

Thx!
Instead of: "mame -screen0 //.DISPLAY2"
I have to use: "mame -screen0 \\.\DISPLAY2"
Strange is that \\.\DISPLAY2 is actually the primary monitor, but
mame shows screen0 on the other monitor.
E:\Emu\mame>mame -verbose puckman

That may have to do with which output of your video card is set to what, via the card's control panel (ie: 1 of 2, or, 2 of 2).
