    well a friend of mine changed is 17" for a flat 19" and gave me his old 17" :D

    so I installed an old matrox 4mb :)hehe:) and everything is working now;)

    now my questions:

    1- is it possible to have a different wallpaper on each monitor?

    2- is it possible to have a taskbar too on the second monitor?

    I use XP pro.

    thx;)

    i would have thought windows with some type of application should be able to do it for you...

    I know I could have multiple backgrounds up on mine without installing a seperate program. Then again, that was through a GF4ti4200...so Nvidias drivers may have have been the difference.
