guys need help again :)
see im using a single 24" monitor with a native resolution of 1920x1080p now i would like to add a 15.6" monitor for auxilliary, im working for odesk and i would like to work with my 24" monitor, and watching movies in 15.6" hehehe so it would not bore me working
is that possible? I just got my MSi 760 gaming video card.. thanks guys..
 
Solution
Attach both monitors to the card and use extended desktop. right click the desktop and choose resolution, then click on the 2nd monitor and choose extend the desktop to this monitor in the multi monitor drop down menu.


That certainly is possible. You don't need to use NVidia surround for that though. NVidia Surround, like AMD's Eyefinity, is for when you want to use multiple displays to render one elongated viewport, usually for gaming.
