I asked a question like this before but cant find it.
I cant get one picture to stretch across two screens properly! This is what it looks like But the image is large enough to fit across both the screens but it is fitting on each screen. Is the graphics card not good enough or something? |

I did. Then it tiles from the top left on one screen and stops and tiles from the top left on the other screen too.

Then you have a .png as your desktop. It you can only have it across both monitors if you use a .JPG as your background.

I don't think that would make a difference, it should be about the format, not the file extension.
That thing is definitely running Vista, I can't think of any reason it wouldn't work. |

Are you using two different size monitors? Like literally one being a 17" and a 30"? lol

winRAR can be used for free after the evaluation period expires if you've got a brain.

This partition is specifically for games and media center. I don't care about the fancy things. Something light and simple is fine for me. |

Yes. One is 15" and one 17".
And as you can see they have different resolutions. Im having the same problem on my I think 32" or 42" in flat screen tv and spare 15" monitor. |

They're the same resolution. They're just offset.

Are you sure?
When I see it on the big screen it looks like a much much larger resolution. |

That's because the big screen has a low DPI.
Even if it's HD, that's only 1024 x 768. |

When everyone starts following Sharia Law, ebola will be eradicated from the face of the earth.
