| 85541 | 2002-10-02 23:03:00 | Hi all, 1. Sorry I have been away so long. Been on a holiday. 2. The problem that I have come accross is quite interesting. I have found that when I take a screen-shot I in fact have two screens. I also realised this (but ignored it for a while) when my mouse would go outside of the viewing area of my screen and go to the left. The problem is troubling too. I have too screens yet I can see only one. I would much prefer it if I was able to only have one screen, so that when I took a screen-shot I would see the screen that I could view. Sorry if I didn't explain it very well. If you didn't understand, please tell me where you got lost. Thanks in advance, Zan. |

| 85543 | 2002-10-03 00:12:00 | You may have two monitors enabled in your setup, perhaps your video card has a dual output of tv-out as well right click on a blank area of desktop, select properties and select settings - advanced. Look in there to disable the secondary monitor |

| 85545 | 2002-10-03 00:28:00 | Already had a browse through there, though no luck . I have however, when I have a look at the display properties that there are two options there . One-the "Digital Flat Panel (1024*768) on S3 Graphics Savage/IX" and the second of which is "Default Monitor on S3 Graphics Savage/IX" To show you what is wrong, I have uploaded the file . The URL for it is: . angelfire . com/mi4/morph/screenprob . jpg" target="_blank">www . angelfire . com Note how the screen is split into two . The right screen which is blue is the one which I can't see . My cursor however, is able to enter it . Any idea on how to remove it? |

| 85547 | 2002-10-03 00:40:00 | Is that a virtual desktop I see there? | SoniKalien (792) | ||
| 85548 | 2002-10-03 01:25:00 | Phate, is this a notebook computer we are talking about?? If so, they usually always have dual video out, so just DISABLE one of them, it looks like you have them both enabled as extended desktop. It really would help to have more info.............. |

| 85549 | 2002-10-03 02:23:00 | Sorry, I am being a little sketchy. Yes it is a notebook. And also yes, I would love to disable one of them - if I knew how. As much spec as I can give you on the top of my head (Budget notebook). Gateway Solo 5300 PIII 600MHz 256 PC133 SDRAM 6Gb (That won't help). And not that any of that would help. |
