This video will show you a neat trick to extend your desktop onto a separate monitor. It is really good for media editing...and good for multi tasking.
it works well on my netbook, even with only 1GB ram
any questions, just PM me :)

  • hello ive done this on my notebook but now it wont let me undo it to show same screen on both devices, can you help me?

  • This works on XP for me but not on Windows 7, Glad I tried it on Windows 7 before installing absolutely everything. I just get 2 black screens on 7. Hence to 32inch on DVI to HDMI and a 17 inch on VGA. Only duplicate works on 7 or used to work doesnt even let you boot in to 7 now with 32inch connected via DVI.

  • does it effects the performance of the netbook

  • what is the name of the song

  • is your monitor plugged in?

  • oooo accent.....sorry but when ure from Hull (the city with a silent 'H') The is a accent with the license to cringe
