Ok this might sound a dopey question but I've to ask. Why do you use 2 monitors? :confused:

I do :p

Sometimes you have an LCD and a CRT.

LCD's suck for gaming but are nice for most else.

If you have both monitors hooked up then go to display properties. Then settings, then advanced. Find either the Nvidia or Ati control panel. Find the monitor section and use clone if you want the same image on both. If you don't then you can use extend desktop.

I've a 21 " Monitor hooked to my PC and 46" to my laptop. Don't need no extended desktop. :p

Yeah I have a 21" too :p

But do you play games and view the game on both and is it better?

atholon 03-29-2005 08:10 PM

Not sure what you mean...depending on what game I played is what monitor I used.

I just set my video card to disply "Clone" and turned one monitor on and one off.

What I meant was suing both to stretch the screen while playing between both or 3 monitors

I did that just for the heck if it but it is kind hard because you have at least a 1 inch gap between screens.

If yah want a big screen get a projecter or plasma ;)
