Motherboard: GIGABYTE P35C-DS3R
GPU: GIGABYTE 9600 GT 1GB
RAM: 4x1GB Corsair DDR2 800 MHz

I love my PC now compare to how was it before I change all that it run gr8! but unfortunately I cant use clone mode anymore and here is my prob I have try to make it work for hours but nothing seems to work I search in Google for some help and the only thing I find is many others like me make the exact same question in different sites but no1 help them..

Have you tried it not in clone mode? " Separate display on different monitors"

Are you using windows 'display properties' or the Nvida utility? Try DL "ntune' from Nvidia and then choose 'set up dual displays'. Works for me on Vista 64 on similar equipment.

If you have Nvidia card, right click open desktop space, click personalize, display settings, GeForce (OR Video Card Tab at top), Start Nvidia Control panel. in #1, Check the monitors u want to display, in #2 Verify your display configuration: Right click where both the monitors are displayed and select clone option.

(TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIGURE OUT, was almost gonna go back to XP then i figured it out

hope i helped someone)

Thanks,
DUG
