Dual monitor help..

[VigilanteCS]

Hi,
I ran across an extra monitor and I'm using it as a second monitor hooked up to my Dell Inspiron 9300 (Geforce 6800 Go 256 mb). My question is this...with dual view can I get it so the extra desktop is off to the left side of the primary monitor rather than off to the right? The only place I have space for the extra monitor is on the left, and it's annoying moving the mouse to the right to get to a monitor on the left.

Thanks!

Go to display properties & change your primary display to be the left monitor.

That will move the start bar and all of the icons over to the other monitor...I don't want that. Thanks, though

you can drag the monitors where you want them in the display tab.
