Different Desktop Images on Dual Monitors

I have a silly question. I just hooked up a second video card and monitor on my Win XP pro system. Now just for the fun of it I would like to have different desktop images on each monitor. Does anyone know how I can do that? Thanks

Georgia vs McOwen - IT'S OVER FOLKS!

That's great that its over. The good thing is that David won't have a felony record, and the punishment is not very severe. The worst part of the deal is the legal fees! Damn thats a lot of money. Oh well its very good that its over.

what's the ideal monitor refresh rate?

PS I use two CTX monitors, a 17 inch and a 19 inch. I've liked CTX for a couple of years now because they're cheap and I can press a button and it will tell me what the refresh rate is. I find that is a helpful feature. All monitors should have that.

what's the ideal monitor refresh rate?

The higher the refresh rate the better it will look. If your monitor/video card doesn't support a high rate, your display probably won't show up at all, and I've heard there is a chance you could damage your monitor running at rates it doesn't support, but I've never seen that myself. These...

What are the chances?

Based on yesterday's stats, the chances of D.Net finding the RC5-64 key today are 1 in 595. I wanted to try to put that in prospective, so I did a little math. It is the equivilant of flipping a coin 9.21 times in a row and coming up with heads each time, or you could roll 3.56 dice and come...

Why won't California's border states help us out with power supply?

California's electricity problems are political in nature. It is the workings of the liberal/socialist politicians over the last couple decades which have led to this. If electricity was produced, bought, and sold on a totally free market, there would never be shortages. The problem is the...

OK, so the best the P4 did was 1,943 kkeys. At 1.5 Ghz that gives us 1.29 kkeys/mhz/sec. Bleh Oh well, hopefully an optimized core will make it into a speed demon. I thought SSE was floating point SIMD instructions. Does SSE or SSE2 have integer instructions? Also aren't there only like 3...
