Hi,
I have the Trident CyberBlade XP Ai1 GFX card, and a Toshiba Satellite Pro, Celeron 1GHZ running windows 2000.
I am trying to use the multiple monitor feature of windows 2000, in particular I'm trying to use desktop expansion. I want to be able to use the LCD screen of the laptop to show certain windows and the external monitor to show other windows.
According to Windows help I can do this by:
"Selecting the Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor check box allows you to drag items across your screen onto alternate monitors"
Unfortunatley I cannot see this option! However I can get both screens to work simultaneously (showing the same output).
My driver version for my card is: v5.9030
Is this card capable of doing what I'm trying to do? and if so, how do I do it!?!?!?!
Any ideas appreciated.

Does anyone have any idea about this one?
Is there a list of video cards / laptops compatible with multi monitor setups?
Cheers,
Ben

If you already have the latest drivers for the card, the drivers most likely don't have multi-monitor support under Windows 2000.
Most likely it would work fine with Windows 98/Me and XP.

Thought that might have been the case.
Thanks for your help.
