Unfortunately you can't.\nThe video-outs you have are the only ones you can use, so you are limited to the laptop monitor and one external is you have a VGA or S-video output.

Well it might disappear from your screen due to your monitor settings. Right click on your desktop click properties, then settings and make sure you are only viewing on one monitor.

Well,\nThe Question is very vague.\n\nI believe we donot require any card for this,if you have connected the two monitors to a Laptop or a PC.\n\n* Try pressing the buttons <ctrl>,<alt> and <F1> simultaneously.\n* Try doing this at least 3 to 4 times.\n* This helps to toggle between the two screens.\n\nhope this works.

Then when you get the card installed, just right click on your desktop and in your display settings just turn on the second monitor (if you have one hooked up. Then adjust settings to determine which is the right and left monitor and there you have it. Then your mouse and keyboard will both work for both monitors since your computer is just using one (simulated) super wide desktop that actually covers 2 monitors. For example if your mouse is on screen 1 and you move it to the right and off the edge of the screen, it will come up on the other computer.

first .. you need a video card that have 2 monitor outputs. then get 2 monitors. then use a software provided by the video card company to help you set it up(i have ATI radeon. so i use the software ati catalyst control center ). then just connnect them!!\n\nthere are little pieces of stuff in the procedure that i cant explain right here. and it is different for all the video cards. but try it , its not too complicated..

Your laptop would have to have a video output in order to set it up with a TV.  (Either SVideo, RCA)  You could also go the route of using a Scan Converter which runs through your monitor signal as another option.

At the back of your laptop you will see the S-connector. You need a cable called s-connector cable. You connect that from you laptop to your TV. Then go to your desktop. Right click anywhere on your desktop. Go to properties, then settings, advance, monitor tab, click dual monitor. On your TV put it on video or dvd mode. You should be able to watch movie on your TV coming from your laptop.

If your laptop has a yellow video port, with an RCA jack connection, just use a common video cable to hook the laptop's yellow plug with the yellow plug on the TV.  \nIf your laptop has only the external monitor port, you probably won't be able to connect the two without an adapter.

You don't need to change resolution of PC. You need to change resolution on second monitor - in Display properties/Settings there is multiple monitors on ... Click on second monitor and choose different resolution.

Ok, If you are running as two screens, drag one application to the other screen, if it shows on both screens you have it set to clone, you need to either make it 2 sepearte screens in video properties, or one large screen that you can drag on application to one half(display) and one to the other. if your video card will support 2 monitors, that is.

Install a second Windows XP compatible video card and monitor.  Right click anywhere on the desktop where there isn't an icon and select properties. Click the settings tab.  Here you will find where to setup the second monitor.\nIt is important you use a Windows XP compatible video card. I did it using a video card out of an old computer.  My computer started having problems with random lockups.  I installed a new video card and everything now works great.

thethief is kind of right, but youll get sucky performance. Buy a modern agp or pci-express video card and it should have a dvi and vga input, with a dvi > vga adapter allowing more than one monitor plugged into the video card.

There is no way to use the same monitor with two computers SIMULTANEOUSLT ... but you can switch between two computers with a KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) box.\n\nThese boxes connect to a keyboard, monitor and mouse, and then connect to two computers.  You use a switch to toggle between the two machines.  If you have many computers they even makes boxes that will connect to as many as 8 computers at a time ... probably more.
