For those interested, I have 1 (Good condition) Samsung 245BW and 2 (As New) Matrox Digital DualHead2Go up for sale. I need to buy a few things for my new Foxconn Destroyer build, so these have gotta go. Please PM with offers. The DDH2G's are so new that the only thing missing from them is 1 box seal opened. Otherwise they're as new, used for a couple of weeks. The 245BW is still under Samsung 3-year warrenty. Purchased 12/20/2008.

Question.

I have had dual monitors before hooked up to my 7800GTX and when I extended the desktop across both it only did just that. I had more desktop space, but games still only ran in one monitor.

Was I just doing something wrong or is the ability to have applications span as well as the desktop a newer feature that did not exists back then.

I guess this also means a TH2G is not required for 3 monitors. Is there any inherent disadvantage to get a cheaper DH2Go run 2 monitors together as 1 with the Matrox and then run the 3rd monitor on its own in the 2nd output and then span it?

Use horizontal-span mode, not DualView. Span modes are only available to XP based operating systems. This can be activated via the Display -> Set up multiple displays menu in the nVidia control panel.
