I have a Dell running windowsXP and 2 monitors each hooked
to a Different monitor.
How do I clone the the displays so that both monitors
display the same images.
One monitor is next to the CPU. The other monitor is in a
windtunnel (with a wireless mouse). The aplication needs
to be shown on both monitors at the same time.
Thank you for your help.
Well it would sure have helped if you had included what video card you're
using..... so this advice is coming at you from a blind perspective.
I use a Geforce 4 MX 440, and my settings for cloning monitors are found via
the following:
1) Right-click on your desktop, and select Properties
2) On the Settings tab, select Advanced
3) Now select the tab with your video card's title
When I do that, I see a menu of options, one of which is Display Mode.
On my Display mode tab, I have buttons to Detect Displays, Device settings,
etc.
Once I have had the system detect my other monitor, I can choose from 4
display options:
Standard, Clone, Horizontal span, and Vertical span. (Standard allows me to
have more than one Desktop which I can switch between, the span modes allow
you to *spread* the desktop over the two monitors vertically, or
horizontally) This is all on a separate page from the TV-out options... but
TV-out disables output to the monitors.
I hope that helped.... but if not... repost and include your video card
make/model.
