dual monitors

[Alyson]

I am attempting to set up my two monitors ... I now it so
that each is working, but they simply mirror each
other ... I want to use them indepently and so that a
program can be stretched across each monitor.

How can I accomplish this?

Hi:

1) Right-click an empty area on your desktop
2) Choose Properties
3) In Display Settings choose the Settings tab.
4) Left-click the #2 monitor icon to select it.
5) Check mark the "Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor" box.
6) If you wish, on the #2 icon, left-click drag and drop it to the
other side if monitor #1 if that is how your monitors are physically
placed.
7)Apply
8)OK

This is what I do and think it is what you are after.

Once done, you may want to change the refresh rates and resolutions of
either or both monitors. Just click on the #1 or #2 icon (for the
monitor you want to adjust) to select it >Choose Advanced ... >Monitor
or whatever your video card software gives you ...

Happy trails,
