Hi,

I'm trying to get dual monitors configured against a laptop. So far I've been able to get the desktop to mirror itself. However I would ideally like to have one large desktop where I can fling windows from one screen to another.

When select de-selecting the mirror screens option, the second monitor is recongised. But as soon as the changes are applied the machine freezes and I'm unable to move the mouse courser. I have tried two different monitors and the same problem occurs.

Please please could someone help as I'm going insane. I believe the graphical chipset being used is Mobile Intel(R) 915GM/GMS,910GML Express Chipset Family.

Thanks

Nathan
