Hi,

I feel really stupid for having to ask help on this but I can't seem to get Windows 8.1 to show the same wallpaper on both monitors when I have multiple wallpapers cycling. Windows 7 obviously did this by default and I was wondering if there's a way to put it in that "mode"

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Thanks!

This is for Win8, should work with 8.1

Rightclick on the Desktop, select Personalize
At the bottom - click on Desktop Background
Picture Positions - Select Span

Sorry, maybe I should have been more clear. I don't want one picture to stretch across both monitors. I want one picture displayed on to both separately. Just like the default dual monitor setup in Windows 7

Ah. The same image mirrored on each monitor? Select Tile instead. That seems to do it.
