Depends on the video card that your laptop has. I have experience with both ATI and NVidia, and both have this capability. Older laptops may only allow the external monitor to mimic the local screen, but newer ones (last few years) should allow you to setup the external as an 'extra' monitor.

I am wondering is it possible on a laptop connected to an external monitor, to allow the user to run one program on the laptop screen and at the same time have another program running on the external monitor. Do I need special softeware to do this? -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com The information contained in this transmission is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain II-VI Proprietary and/or II-VI Business Sensitive material.
