If your running dual monitors how do you get your task bar to extend across both screens? Windows 7 btw.

Also how can i get my desktop background pic to be streched across both sceens instead of two seperate pics?

For your task bar, you can download for free an app called MultiMon. We use it at work and it does pretty well. -> http://www.mediachance.com/free/multimon.htm <- For the background image, here is a Windows KB on that: -> http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/how-can-i-stretch-my-background-over-2-monitors/4cd57c83-c6c6-4f43-9935-49a9477855c2

The better way is if your card naturally supports that. ATI uses eyefinity, I don't remember what Nvidia calls it. I don't think any Intel video chip sets support it.

Thanks! I'm diggin the seperate taskbar for monitor#2. As far as the desktop pic i thought i was doing it right, but i was forgetting to resize the pic. As soon as i read the instructions from the link i was like fuuuuuuuuuq.
