Display Adapter - Matrox G550. Question, how do I enable dual monitor wallpaper ( presently any image I apply to monitor 1 is duplicated on monitor 2 ). I have downloaded some cool split file wallpaper that I can not display properly.

There are several ways to do this, see the FAQ for details.

Using the default windows wallpaper system seems to be the best technique. Just select active desktop, then your image and make sure its tiled.
I've tried the new Nvidia desktop wallpaper system that lets you put a seperate picture on each monitor and found some performance issue with it. It might have just been my system, but I found that video playback suffered when using it.
