    another idea I had for a wallpaper and voila! what do you guys think?
    I think that looks great....if you could make that in 3040x900 I'd be proud to add it to my rotation!
    (yes, it's an odd size..primary monitor is 1600x900, secondary is 1440x900)

    You are welcome Randy. I didn't know you could get a screen cap of multiple monitors like that. Looks good.

    When you have multiple monitors, the default screen cap is both. A Guy

    I just did the old shift-printscreen, and that's what I got......then I pasted it and saved it into Irfanview. Much easier than trying to do a snip with two screens!
    Here's a camera shot of them.....(unsightly messy desk and all)

    Nice Randy. I've never used more than one monitor at a time. I was gonna ask if you could take a pic of the setup, thanks!:)

    They're kind of in a V-shape, just so they fit. I had to put down a piece of floor tile on top of my desk to widen it so I could use them.

    I lucked out in two ways with this setup. First of all, when my uncle built the system, he set it up with 2 DVI ports, no VGA.....and second, I got the primary monitor, a 20" widescreen, from my boss for $45....he'd only used it a couple of times, and now uses his big TV as a monitor.

    I didn't know at first what I would do with two, but I've figured it out along the way....my music programs automatically boot up on the secondary monitor, for example. If I am doing file transfers, my progress window and Explorer windows will be on the 2nd screen.

    I can even watch video on one screen and browse through my various forums on the other.

    So the cursor just travels willy-nilly between the screens?

    Yes....primary screen is on the left, and you can go from left to right and back to the left with the mouse pointer as if it was indeed all one screen.
