    I'd love to try out watching a movie on my two LCD monitors - in widescreen. I dont know if its possible (to my knowlege, its not), but can you stretch your desktop across two displays?

    now, before anyone jumps in and says extend desktop, thats not what I want. I want both screens to act as one really wide one.

    heres some config:

    Club3D x800 SE dual dvi
    AG Neovo 19" 12ms LCD (x2)

    Allows you to span an application window across two monitors. I've seen other apps that do ut across multiple monitors for shop displays etc. Dunno about DVD's because they use an overlay which might cause problems.

    Thanks guys, but to my shame it turns out that the ATI catalyst control center (which I neglected to install for fear of a bloated program that did nothing) actually does this. The program is bloated, and slow, but it does do ask needed.

    thanks again.

    I don't use those drivers I use the Omega ATI drivers. http://www.omegadrivers.net/ They are more reliable I find.
