i'm trying to set up 2 monitors on 1 pc. however, what i want to do is have each monitor act as it's own desktop. for example...i'm going to be using the setup for a business presentation whereby people will be running a computer based training module on the left hand monitor while practicing the lesson on the right hand monitor at the same time. basically, i need the user to be able to move back and forth between the two windows with the same mouse...but i only want the applications running in each window to be maximized within each window. so i don't really need two start menus or quickstart panes...just trying to have icons on both screens that when launched will open to fill only the screen they are on. can this be done? and if so what video card or hardware will i need? up to this point i've been able to extend the desktop to cover both screens, but when i maximize a window on either monitor it expands to cover both. thanks for any help!
