dual monitors? - Fiddlestiiicks - 07-24-2012

I recently got a dual monitor setup, but I can't figure out how to get a big wallpaper to span across both of them. It only duplicates the same wallpaper on both of them. Someone help me with this please Cheese

You are going to kill it with dual monitors. I had the same one untill I changed it two months ago, it was from GainWard. It had alot of issues running on a poor HD ready monitor. Sad

I've had dual monitors for a few months now, it's been running just fine, I've had no problems with it. I just can't figure out how to make my wallpaper span across both.

Right click on the background and select Personalization

Click on Desktop Background

Select a background image that is at least as wide as the combined resolution of both of your monitors.

Now, this is the trick: Select the Tile picture positioning option

Click OK
