Well, it all depends ... on what your video adapter driver allows you to do. Step 1 is to realise you can set your monitor settings seperately ... in the 'display properties' dialog witht he 'settings' tab selected, you should see a grey box with your monitor shown as '1' and '2' (say) You may be able to click on each of them and set (a few) properties up seperately. As a developer, I (ands loads of others) have run 2 and 3 monitor systems quite a bit, but almost always as big extended desktops. In this situation, you use a setting like 'extend my desktop onto this monitor' I think what you want is a 'slave' of your first monitor, but neither of the display adapters on my 2 systems here at home have that kind of setting :-)) I'll have a look a work (on yet another system) for you tomorrow |
