ok i got a msi g4 ti 4200 128, ive messed around with the nview a little, but i havnt figured out how to get it where i can do stuff on one monitor and do something else on the other monitor thats hooked up, all i can see that i can do is clone it, or make it span across.....how do i get it where i can do stuff on one monitor and then do sometjhing different on the other, at the same time??

I used two seperate vid cards, get a cheap pci vid card, OR I have heard of some people using there onboard vid, but I don't know how that works.

well is have the same msi card so what you do is use display properties and configure it to fire up both monitors. i assume you have all the software on so its a simple act of haveing two monitors plugged in and setting it up in the display properties window.

when u open the display properties and go to settings dose it have a second monitor labled 2 that is blurred out? if so your supposed to configure that to get the second display by clicking on it and it asks you if you want to use it. if you dont have that then i guess you might need to install some software of reinstall.
