I have 2 notebooks. Both with WIN 200 PRO.
I have in my office a flat panel , and another at my home.
How can I see differents windows , with win 2000 pro.

I know that the xp pro has this feature, can someone help
me, given an idea in what do I have to do.
Both notebooks are IBM. Model T40 - and T 23
Thanks

Install a second video card (unless your video card has
dual output) and connect your second monitor to it.

Right click the desktop/properties/settings and you can
enable dual monitors

Hope this info is useful.

Not so easy to install a second video card in a notebook. Or did I miss
something?

This is a function of your laptop.

It is a FN and combo key like F5. If you cycle through it
should give you multiple options. 1. Notebook Monitor
only. 2.NoteBook and Output. 3 Output Connection only.
