Just got my dualies working....

H

Hyperblaze

Lifer
At work I have triplets, and have a taskbar for each one.

I haven't been able to figure out how to get a taskbar in my "extended" monitor for my dualies at home. would anyone happen to know? Thanks.
 
By dualies you mean dual monitors or dual CPUs?

Edited: Nevermind, by reading your post, i figured out you meant dual monitors
 
what video card to you have?

are you cloning your desktop @ work... or is it the same taskbard spread across the monitors.
 
If you use an nvidia card, set it to horizontal span and the taskbar will extend to your second monitor.
If you use an ati card.. then you're out of luck
You can get an imitation taskbar with ultramon.

Errr, wouldn't it be SOFTWARE - APPS, PROGRAMMING AND GAMES?

I would have put in in GH or Video because it really is a question pertinent to hardware. For windows to stretch the taskbar by default, as well as movies, both screens require independent frame buffers. Otherwise you have to use a 3rd party utility. The Matrox line of G*** cards are the only common ones I can think of off the top of my head that do this out of the box, but there could be others. You probably take a performance hit when doing this through software.
