Hi. Can anybody help me. I was thinking of setting up dual display on my computer. At current I have Geforce card plugged into my AGP slot which i have my main monitor plugged into. And there is another blue display slot on the back of my pc. For some reason my computer doesn't realise the other blue slot is there, i think its onboard graphics, but am unsure. I havent got a clue about hardware, please could anyone help me out with this problem? I was thinking of buying a TFT monitor to plug into it but dont want to buy one if its not going to work. Thanks

First thing you wanna do is open the display properties under the settings tab click identify,you should see #'s 1 and 2 flash on the respective monitors.

Once you see that all you need to do is select display #2 and check the "extend my windows desktop onto this monitor" box

Click apply and ok and you're done

Goodluck
