thats a great program thanks for posting a article on it, however it would be better if i could use dreamscene on one display.

I am running 2 gtx 260 cards using 4 monitors, 3 42 inch 1080p’s and 1 19 “, the 19 ” is the main desk top and is where the taskbar is located. Some times i just want to watch something on one of the 42″ display’s and still keep the main desktop 19″ monitor on, so turning off or blanking the other 42″ displays is perfered. What would be nice is to see a program that would allow me to put icons on the main 19″ display that would allow me click a display on/off or blank or active

I figgured out how to do it without any additional software. You have to do a bit of image processing but it worked perfect for me. Here is the run down:
Figure out what the resolution of your monitor is: mine is 1680X1050 (two of them)
Modify an existing picture, or make a new one with resolution of 3360X1050
Set the new picture as your desktop background using the “tiled” option. This will make the image continuous across both monitors. Good luck!

I used Matlab to put two images together, but you could probably use photoshop or even paint. I then used microsoft office picture manager to resize and crop the pic to the correct resolution.

Ahhh, sometimes its the simple things that make life sweet. Now I have the cold, soulless eye of the HAL9000 staring out at me from one monitor and Dave Bowman’s pensive, worried mein gazing at me from the other. When I get bored, I just point the monitors at each other and watch the tension build. I tell ya, it’s as much fun as “Zombie Baseball”. Thanks Geek!
