Dual Moniters
I have a Vista laptop with a NVIDIA Graphics card. when i try to set up a
dual moniter, it doesnt let me have seperate displays, rather only lets me clone the laptop display onto the other screen. Can anyone help me? |

Dual Moniters
Without knowing the make/model of the laptop and knowing what graphics
chip/card it has it is not easy to answer your question. Can you provide a link to the user's manual for your laptop? It is not unusual for laptop graphics not to support extended desktop mode due to the amount of graphics memory required and/or due to the amount of additional power( and therefore heat generated) required.
