Two monitors to show two different desktop images?
I have researched this before coming here (though not exhaustively!) and downloaded SourceForge's DualMonitorTools-1.8. I thought the DualWallpaper.exe tool would do what I want, but no..
I have several dozen wallpaper pictures, which Windows 7 changes at random every 24hrs. I would much rather have my second monitor black however (as I have all my often-accessed shortcut icons on that one and they are not always as visible as they could be on top of a picture; it's also a different resolution from the main monitor, so pictures are cut off in any case). The DualWallpaper.exe tool, even though I select just the 2nd. monitor, turns both my monitors black however (I selected a Black.bmp file I made, the same size as the monitor resolution). I can't get the 1st. monitor to keep showing me my desktop pictures, as at present, whilst the 2nd. monitor is black, as per my bmp file.
Anyone know if I can do this with the software I have downloaded? Or otherwise?? (Don't really want to download anything other than freeware, 'small footprint' stuff, sledgehammer to crack a nut and all that..).
nVidia GTX660 GPU + nVidia Control panel, BTW ...
Thanks!
