Dual monitors

[madf1man]

Have just upgraded my 2nd monitor so now am wanting to utilize better. I am seeing dual monitor software outthere. Anybody have any suggestion. Used for photography of course but also just general use. Thanks

PC? I have dual 22 inchers running under Win7, the OS handles it all. What exactly are you looking to do?

Dual 20.1 4:3 pro series here (1600x1200 each), Windows handles it all. Is there something specific you need that Windows is not delivering?

one note

if you use a calibrator on your monitor(s), your video card or the software will need to support separate profiles, otherwise the one calibration will get applied to both monitors and may not be optimal.

just a heads up.

I have Windows XP Home and it handles my dual Viewsonic 26" just fine. It's the video card and the video card driver that does all the work, at least in my OS anyway.

For one I would like to have tool bars on both screens. Like I am operating 2 diff computers with one. I suppose the question is, is this possible?

Not sure you can actually run two machines without even more software to create a Virtual Machine. Here is how I break mine up:

If all you're looking for is to have tool bar show on both windows, I know Ultramon will do that: UltraMon Features - Smart Taskbar

Its a pretty cool utility.

There may be a 'free' way to do the same thing in Windows 7, but I've not investigated that route.
