Help with attached second monitor on X800XT

Hello all!

I am currently running an ATI Radeon X800XT PE AGP with a Dell 2005FPW via DVI and a 7" widescreen LCD via the S-Video connector. I am able to have picture on both by forcing the 7" TV/LCD. What I don't like is that the mouse moves over to the second display when I move it too far on my main display to the right. Is there any way to isolate my 2005fpw from the 7" so each run runs independantly? Sorry if this is a n00b question, I'm new to this sort of thing. Thanks!

Um, how would you access the second screen if not by the mouse?

You can move the screen to wherever you want, to the left of the first screen, above or below. Under Display Properties > Settings simply drag the smaller screen to the position around the first that you'd like and hit apply.

That's kind of an oddball combination, a 2005fpw and a 7" widescreen LCD. What purpose does the 7" screen serve?
 
I'm also curious as to how you will access the second screen if not by means of the mouse? Do you want clone displays? Clone displays are where the two screens are copies. Clone displays is probably the best setting for presentaions. I believe Ati supports this feature in their drivers.
