Is it hard to set up duel monitors?

[Paradon]

I'm gettning a new, larger monitor for christmas because the one i have is almost a square and pretty small.
I think it would be cool to use the new one as a main-monitor for gaming and stuff, while I easily can watch videos and whatnot on the other one. Do I just plug the new monitor in, or do I have to go trough some long and complicated process to make it work?

you have to set up your graphics to handle dual screen.

You need to give each a sword.

You need to give each a sword.

And a shield.

it's pretty easy as long as you have the right cord for it.

Make sure your video card can take 2 monitors.

how

a high performance card can run on 4 monitors or even more, but a stock card can barely run 2 if even that

how

Google your card.

You need to give each a sword.

they need training first to make it an even better fight

And make sure to monitor them or they might get too rough.

You should also download Dual Desktop, it's free and it allows you to have a taskbar on your secondary monitor while keeping both monitors as seperate desktop environments, windows 7 and below doesn't have such a feature natively

Just make sure you have two monitor slot/plug things on your graphics card and it should work fine.
