Dual Monitor How-to

[ir_cow]

i got dual too but i leave my second monitor on for gaming so i can read temps and see if someone AIM me. it doesnt change fps more than 2 or 3 in cs:S

[Guest Silenc3]

How do I get to Dual, but have my desktop on the other? while iam ingame.

and is there a way I can set a keyboard to work with one desktop, and one for the other?

Silenc3 not sure if i understand what your asying or not but while gaming your mouse is locked in the game even if you can move it out of the game if you click anything it will minimize the game

Ya I cant make sense of it either, err what I meant is

I have 2 keyboards, 2 screens, 2 mice, Can I seclude one mouse and keyboard to the game, and the other to desktop?

I have a problem, i have a Laptop with an ATi Rage GFX Card onboard on a Toshiba 1620CDS but it dosent seem to do the dual monitors thing, the monitos pick up etc but the display settings wont let me have dual monitors:( I am running Windows 2000.

[spazmire11]

have you tried updateing drivers?

 

i have that same laptop with windows 98 se on it and the dual moniters worked perfectly, beware 4mb of ram is hardly enough to run too moniters at high resolutions.

The TV is (on most cards) either 2 or 3. You will want to run it at 640x480. If it is a nice TV, maybe 800x600.
