Hey, I got 2 monitors hooked up to my comp through my HIS Excalibur 9600XT card, however the second one displays fine while loading up and in bios etc, but once windows loads it turns itself off
anyway i can fix this?

I don't have any experience in this, but I'd guess you should right click on desktop, go to properties>settings and see what the second display is set to...
On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

yeah what 4th gen said, right click dektop>properties then settings at the top and it will show 2 monitor pictures, one is probably greyed out, click that one (probably with a 2 in the middle) then lower in hte window go to expand my windows desktop onto this screen.
Thanks, that worked
but on that monitor there is nothing, just my wallpaper, no desktop icons, no open windows, nothing...
just a pic of a hot chick

umm try dragging windows over from your desktop to the otehr screen, does that do anything? it did on my video card when i hooked my comp to the tv but that was after fiddling with a few settings.
Do you have the desktop stretched over the two monitors or do you have the same display on the two monitors?Originally posted by kaiweiler@27 January 2004 - 23:06

I have the same display, but i can drag stuff over to the other one too
Is there any way i could get a full screen game to run on both screens?
oh, okay now, i took a screenshot and it came up as both monitors put together into one big screenshot with the wallpaper split between the two, so thats right

The comnputer will act like it is one big moniter for windows stuff and basic apps... Any games at all will only use one montier... I have such a set up right now... (diff brand though)
Okay, that is exactly what is happening now, thanks for telling me so i dont spend hours trying to configure it to work lol
