Ok im running dual monitors, but isn't there a way you can set double desktops?

I have a laptop, I want to set the laptop screen to 1 desktop and the other another desktop is that possible?

And is it possible to set the second monitor to the primary monitor and my laptop monitor to the secondary?

Should all be in your driver settings, you know right click desktop, properteis, last tab.. advance properties... video card tab.

If you set the monitors to span horizontally you can get a really wide desktop. You can set primary and secondary in driver options as well.

Well you can clone it.

Your 30' LCD will show exactly what your laptop does.

I need to figure out how I can set different desktops to each monitor. I need to be able to play gunbound on one screen, then AIM, check email, work on the other. Anyone have any clues how this is possible?


I believe you need span, or something like that. I know it was an Nvidia option back when I had a green card. Butttttt...yeah.



Sigged for life.

What do you mean by "clone" <= How do I go about doing this? Process?

Do you need to have a nvidia card? 0_o



MUCH THANKS.
