[RESOLVED] Dual Monitors...Now What?

[TheCardMan]

OK, so I set up a system with a dual head video card (Radeon VE) and 2 monitors (one 15" LCD & one 17"). Planning to run auto cad program so they can split the screen by putting tools on one screen and the drawing on the other. Sounds great but now that I have it running I have no clue as to how to show something different on each monitor. I don't have the Auto Cad program yet, but is there a way I can test and learn how to display something different on each screen? Like run a game on one screen and Word on the other? Right now all I get is 2 monitors doing the same thing.

Help....

Go to ATI's Radeon VE User's Guides page and check out the "User's Guide for the Radeon VE's ATI HydraVision software."

First configure the computer to work in dual head mode using the HydraView utility that came with the RadeonVE. make the screed on both monitors.
then you just strach Autocad on the main monitor and drag the tool applets to the secondary one.
