Triple Monitors...Want Triple Screensavers!!!

I recently built myself a New SLI based computer. (as seen from the specs below).
I built my new computer mainly as a workstation but do play an occasional game here and there.
I fully understand that while in SLI mode, during gaming, graphics will only output to 1 screen. However , the majority of my computing is done as a work station. And would very much like to have my screensaver appear on all three screens. How can this be accomplished. I think I’ve searched your entire database but cannot seem to find any info on this.


Please Help!!!!



ASUS A8N SLI PREMIUM
AMD ATHLON XP 3500+

2X PNY VERTO GEFORCE 7800GT PCIE

In display properties/settings there is a check box for each monitor to "Extend my windows desktop onto this monitor".

I had the same problem when i was running dual monitors, theres two fixes I found that worked. 1. Use the nVidia display wizard, this is a good tool. 2. http://www.realtimesoft.com/multimon/faq.asp
