i began using a dual screen setup the other day and i was wondering if it is possible to have a different wallpaper for each of the 2 monitors thx
yes it is, go to Display Properties > Settings > Extend my desktop to this monitor which should be monitor two, I hope this helps.
what you said is how to setup a dual display. i have already done that though. what i need now is to know how to display a "different" wallpaper on the 2nd display. thx
ok, this is a little trick I read about on the web Display Properties > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Web tab Select New and browse to the image location > Click OK Now drag the image over to the second desktop and from the image's pull down menu in the upper left-hand corner select Cover Desktop. Right click > Arrange By and "Lock web items on desktop". Now you should be able to select a different wallpaper for the primary monitor.
That will only slow down your computer. I run a program called: UltraMon. With this program you can control allmost everything with dual monitors. You can download it from: www.download.com Just search for UltraMon. Hope this will help you! Greetings from Norway! Nutrox
