    I have a Radeon 7000 and have two monitors attached through the vga ports.I can get the same picture on both monitors but cant get them to join together to make one. Im running it on winxp pro

    Any help in resolving this problem would be most appreciated.

    Freddy.

    Select the second monitor in the display properties and click 'extend my windows desktop onto this monitor'. You currently have 'clone' mode operating so you may need to turn that off somewhere in the advanced properties.

    Edit: I don't know if the card you mention is a relatively new one or not, but you can also download an app called 'Hydravision' from the Ati site that also supports this.
