How do I get the
best display?
(XP Troubleshoot)
If only one display is available, this checkbox will be
checked but grayed out and not available for
adjustment.
If you have two display devices detected, click the
Extend the desktop onto this monitor checkbox to
use both monitors in tandem as a single desktop image.
After you enable Extend the desktop onto this
monitor, you will be able to drag windows and icons
across your screen onto the other monitors. You will
also be able to stretch a window so that it shows on
more than one display.
For example, you can view many columns of a
spreadsheet stretched across two monitors, or you can
easily view your web browser on one display and edit a
document on a second display.
When you have extended the desktop, settings are
specific to each view of the desktop. For each display,
select resolution and color quality, just as you did
previously for single displays.
Clear this checkbox if you have two monitors enabled
and you want both monitors to display the same image
(SingleView clone mode).
Refer to the Fine Tuning section on
Monitors and Enabling a Multiple Monitor Clone Display
for additional information on Multiple Displays.
Click Identify Monitors to post a large number 1 and 2
on your active displays to help identify which display is
associated with which monitor icon.
Click How do I get the best display? to launch Help
windows (XP: Click Troubleshoot to launch the Help
and Support Center window for the Video Display
Troubleshooter) provided by the operating system. The
information and dialogs will help you diagnose and
resolve problems.
