Have you tried? What was the result?
 
I'm guessing (can't try as I don't have access a dual-headed PC) it's
not possible to have two different screen saves ... but I would guess
that if you setup a screen saver in XP it would activate on both
simultanously. Just a guess.

Which is it you are seeking:
(a) one screen saver to activate simultaneously on both machines (does
this not work?), or
(b) individually configured screen savers (probably requires special
software from the video car manufacturer if it is at all possible ...
check user's guide for video card).
 
I'm hoping to run just one screensaver simultaneously on two screens.
At present I can only get the screensaver to run on the primary monitor and
there doesn't appear to be any standard way to spread it over two screens or
run it separately on two screens.
I was hoping there was a 'tweak' to allow this.
There's no mention in the user manuals for my video cards.

My screensaver runs on both my screens simultaneously and I've
done nothing special to make that happen.

If yours doesn't work that way, I don't know why, but perhaps it
has to do with the particular video card(s) you use.
 
I have the same problem. I am tring to run two screens on a wall for
photo album and I would like to be able to get both screens to be abl
to have diferent pictures on the screen at the same time. now I ca
only get one picture at a time rotating between screens and the othe
screen is black.
