I finally got my dual monitors to work. I attempted to use a training CD on my computer. I get the following message when I attempt to view the training CD, "This CD requires a minimum resolutiion of 1024x768. Please increase your system resolution and run the CD again." My computer is set at 1280x1024. Does this mean that I can use only one monitor? My intent was to watch the CD on one monitor and follow the instructions in the program I am learning.

When I had one monitor there wasn't any problems when I inserted the CD and watched the tutorials. When I added another monitor the program wouldn't come up and I got the message that's in my original post. I'm not sure why the program didn't work with two monitors. However I initiated Windows Media Player, accessed the CD and can now watch the tutorial and follow along in the acutal program using the two monitors.
