NVIDIA Display Properties and nView Desktop Manager

The NVIDIA ForceWare graphics display driver includes two major control panel-
based components — NVIDIA display properties and nView Desktop Manager.
In general terms, "nView™" represents a collection of multi-display technologies
encompassing driver support, multi-display GPU architecture, and desktop
management support.
• NVIDIA display properties, the topic of this user's guide, refers to the control
panel-based user interface from which you can configure the advanced display
properties of the current release of the NVIDIA ForceWare graphics driver.

• nView Desktop Manager is a user-level application utility that focuses on making
you more productive when working on your Windows® desktop. nView Desktop
Manager was originally created for multi-display graphics cards but has grown to
enhance single-display user desktops as well. Desktop Manager supports both
single-display and multi-display configurations running with single-display,
multi-display, or multiple graphics cards based on NVIDIA GPUs.

ForceWare Graphics Drivers: nView Desktop Manager User's Guide.
