I have a question about what way is better to run a dual LCD setup.

Is it better to run the dual LCD's in the Horizontal Mode or is it better to run it in the Dual View?

When I run them in the dual view mode it seems like it runs slower and takes longer. Also I noticed that when I click on a icon or to close a page I have to double or sometimes tripple click it to close it.

Any help would be appreciated.

I run my LCDs in Horizontal mode with no problems. I have IE & Netscape open on 2 LCDs. Since I run 3 LCDs in horizontal mode, the first handles my video playback, the other 2, handle my desktop operations.

Try horizontal mode and resize your applications to run on either monitor, otherwise you can always opt for a 24".
If dual mode isn't happening for you, go horizontal.

What are your specs? VC and CPU?

I'm running dual LCD with Dual View and having no issues. I've got a 6800 Ultra.

I presume you're gaming and I believe horizontal mode is appropriate. Why would you want dual view?

Dont "want" Dual View... juat am asking what one is better. If Horizontal is better and recomended then that is what I am going to go with.
