    Default how to dual screen?

    So i have the DVI connect + the blue connector (forgot name) in my GFX card, wondering, if i post another monitor in my DVI port, would that be a dual screen or is there something else which I have to do to make ti a dual screen?

    Cheers.

    Just plug it in then tick a check box and drag a slider on display settings and you're away.

    The blue plug is VGA. CRT is a type of monitor (the ones with the big backs to put it simply).

    The black circle is S-Video out.

    You can convert DVI to VGA, but it doesn't matter now, he's sorted it .

    So you have two monitors, right?
    And do they show the same thing?
