Control Panel --> Hardware and Sound --> Display --> Adjust Resolution -->Multiple Displays drop down box --> Choose "Extend These Displays"

Or you can extend the displays in the ATI Control Panel as well. (I chose the Windows control panel though)

Good Luck!

you cant play games using only the windows extended mode.

the only other way is to use something called tripplehead2go or get an hd 5000 series card form ati in order to span the game across multiple screens.
