Help Me find a Piece of Software...

Im looking for a piece of software that will allow me to display my desktop pattern on both of my displays in a dual monitor setup. I also need it to allow my monitors to each display at a different resolution.

I remember that there was something that could do this mentioned in a thread a few months back, but I cant find the thread, or remember what the program was called.

Send a message via ICQ to RJ
But the video card also has to support two monitors, otherwise it won't work.
The necessary software is the graphics driver.

Thats right I don't mean to mislead.
Jackl:
I assuming you already have dual display graphics card and have set up properly in windows to utilize both monitors. All U need is to right click on your desktop, go to properties, then settings tab, then advanced box and you should be able to do as you wish there as far as the settings go on the 2 monitors..
