Hey Everyone,

What I want to do is run a dual screen setup on my computer. My graphics card is a NVIDIA 7600GT. It has both a DVI port and a VGA port. The monitors I have are a Phillips 19" LCD Widescreen monitor and a Acer 17" LCD Monitor.

What do i need to do to get a Dual Screen display happening?
This would make video editing and Oblivion moding a whole not easier.

connect them both, configure them both, and set the second one as a second desktop via your Display Properties > Settings.
...iirc.

a whole not?

Well...my 8800 GTX has 2 dvi ports, I use 2 dvi to vga adapters for my 17" sony and my 15" compaq.

With vista it's really easy to set up dual screen...however, when you run a full screen app, and you want to edit something in your sdk editor on the other screen, you must alt tab out of the full screen app...depending on the game and how much ram you have, it might be difficult to do. ( GW = fine with it, even bf2, but worms world party = crash )

I suggest looking in your configuration -> display ->something there. ( maybe nvidia control panel )
