I have an AIW 9600 which has two VGA outputs......and I'm using two monitors. Is there a setting somewhere that allows different backgrounds on each monitor? I've looked without success.....I could do this when I had an nvidia card driving the second monitor. :confused:

a solution when you expand your desktop is to merge the two images together into one background. eg you have 2x 1024x768 then you make an image 1024x1536 wide half for one minitor, half the other.

I think you'll have to make a "stitched" background to have them different, or use some 3rd party utility.

I'd prefer to use ATI software only. Monitor #1 is 1600x1200, monitor #2 is a smaller screen running at 800x600. Right now the second monitor has a background that is the center of the first monitor's background. Looks stupid using my favorite background....

Then do as suggested by boran.

Download a program called "Ultramon". It has all the settings you could want for dual screens :) .
