I have a Toshiba Tecra S1 with ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 and I am experiencing the exact problem noted in this post:
http://www.realtimesoft.com/multimon/forum/messages.asp?Topic=4323&tmpl=
To sum up: "Due to a limitation in Windows 2000, dualhead cards that use a single chipset to drive both monitors require ***special workarounds*** in the driver to be properly recognized by the system. If these workarounds are not implemented, Windows 2000 sees a single large monitor instead of two."
So my question is simple: what are the special workarounds?
ATI is mute on the whole Mobility chipset issue. I have tried DriverHeaven's DH tool with the latest Catalyst drivers to no avail. I have tried MutiRes and PowerBar. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this system be able to set an *independent* resolution on the 2nd monitor?
Will UltraMon do it?
Will the OmegaDrivers do it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The workaround needs to be implemented by the driver developer, there is no other way to fix the problem.
