Subject: [dba-Tech] Dual Monitors on Windows 8

I have a new laptop (Dell Inspiron 64-bit, 8GB RAM, 1TB hard disk, Windows
8) to which I have an Acer external monitor attached. That part works fine,
but I get the same image on both screens, and that's not what I want. I want
the two screens to behave separately, so that for example I could run Access
and have the app running on one screen and the code windows on the other.

Can anyone tell me how to set this up?

Thanks in advance
