Setting up dual monitors

Post by Neil B »

I'm trying to set up a dual monitor system so that I can have Scope on "screen 2" and Cubase on "screen 1".

It's PC with XP and Scope 4.5
I've done a search and saw there was an article in 2003 about a Creamware patch, but it didn't answer my problem really.

So, I've got a 22" moniotr and a 15" both showing the same screens at the moment. I've changed nothing in my PC config or really done anymore than plug both monitors in.

Can someone explain what I need to do please?
And how will I switch between the 2 applications/screens if I get the little beggar to work?

Thanks

open up the display properties(right click on a blank section of the desktop and choose properties, or go to the control panel), and choose the "settings" tab. there you can setup the screens. you can choose which screen is the primary one and then you can extend the desktop on to the other...
