I tried this on my Windows 7 but it only see's 1 screen, and splits the screen in two...

I got a crd screen though you know the big old ones :D?

And my XP only see's one, how do I fix this ?

Cheers

@RestLessIP Most likely problem is the type of Windows you have. Windows 7 Home Premium and Basic will only split the screen, only Professional and Ultimat do dualscreen. I asume this is the same on your xp machine

@TheFilm35 Thanks, i got this on Windows 7 though, but i got xp pro.

@RestLessIP Maybe you computer can't display two screens. Have a look at the advanced settings

Ok, so I just plugged in my two monitors using a VGA splitter, but for some reason one of them is not being detected and the screen is just being duplicated on both. So the screens are working, but my computer just wont let me extend the display. Any tips? I'm getting really frustrated....
