Summary: Support for external full screen

Initial Comment:
When full screen is true on a laptop with an external screen, nothing is shown. The scummVM launcher is capable of running in full screen mode on a external screen but not games. It seems that scummVM forces Windows to only use the embedded screen no matter what I configure Windows to do. It's a shame because that removes the option of playing games on projector as well.

Could support for external full screen be added? 

Tried with Full Throttle.
OS: Win7 64bit
