Hi,

I'd like to put the same Desktop in windows98 on multiple monitors. I have installed 2 video cards in my system but all i can do is extend the desktop. What i want to do is display the same desktop on both monitors so i can work and let my students see the same desktop.


Anybody got a solution ?
thanks,
 
A video card with tv out like a geoforce2 mx400 will allow you to display a copy of your desktop to a TV.
 
If memory serves me right, in the display properties you will find a check box for "extend desktop" - uncheck that box.

Regards.
 
I've seen in the past an external driver box that kicks the signal to multiple displays.
Probably would try on line catalogs for Global ,JDR, or Black Box. Ed Fair
