Hi guys!

Now that the nVidia drivers support multi-display with SLI enabled, I might use an old tft screen that I have as a second monitor for browsing or w/e while gaming / watching a movie, or anything really.

Some games let you use multi-monitors so you can look at two places at the same time in game, like sup com for example. I quite like this too!

How do I go about setting it up though? I know its not just plug monitor into card then it will suddenly work..and I don't want to spend hours trying to figure it out solo :D

Help will be appreciated!
 
How does it work anyway, how do I use the mouse etc on the second screen? Also I don't want it to chop my desktop in half and put half on each screen :S
 
I'd prefer to have the desktop show on each screen if possible, rather than just an empty space to drag things to
 
If I can paste shortcuts over its no probs :)

Thanks guys

Oh, another final question - the main monitor goes into the left socket on the top card - where should the second go?
