Hi,
I would like some help regarding mirroring a display on 2 monitors.
I have a new 24 inch monitor that can display high resolution - which is what I need.
I have an old 15 inch monitor built in to a cabinet (so hard to replace).
I want to mirror the image on both screens.
At present both monitors are plugged into the VGA port of the graphics card (with a splitter). When I lower the resolution in the windows settings the picture displays fine on both screens. When I increase to 1680 x 1050 the new screen displays it fine but the old one says max resolution reached and does not show the image properly.
Is it possible for the card to output display different resolutions for each screen (a lower one for the old screen) so that the images are still mirrored and I can display higher resolution on my new screen? My current graphics card is old and only has 1 VGA output - I'm guessing I can get one with 2 VGA outputs - but this automatically mean I can set each output to a different resolution?
Thank!
