I assumed you were in dual mode =/ Cause thats the one that most people
here use hence giving you two desktops and hence more space

Do you have the latest drivers or whatever Cause this should be an option

Nvidia then??

in control panel should be a applet called Nview, this is what you will need

im not really skilled at multi monitors but i know its possible

i have done it before myself, im just not good at it

You don't need NView at all though. That is simply an extra program/tool for your own convenience; it is kind of "a shell" above the drivers. If the drivers don't support something, NView can't do it....

when i play games i usually just use my "games" profile in ultramon so that only one monitor is on. otherwise it usually screws up my stuff on my other desktop. There really isnt a reason to play a game and try to watch stuff on the other monitor, unless your watching your pc stats or something.

i know cookie, i figured that out after playing with it for 10 mins and discoving some windows had disappeared

what drivers are you using

in my Display options i have Clone, Horizontal span, vertical span, and Dual Mode,

dual mode being the one your after

i was using the horizontal span....

thats the problem then

have you got the option for dual mode though?

if not you'll need a Driver update

what video card you got btw?
and what driver version?

Nvidia GeForce FX 5200

driver version - 6.14.10.5303

kk, you might wanna try using a newer driver

the 75.90s-77.50s work wonders on even older cards, plus you'll get the extra settings

also between the 56.xx's and the 67.03's nvidia removed the 6xAA and made it 8xSSAA
