    Can i show the same thing on 2 monitors?

    Basically, ive got a tft, and a crt, and id like to output the same display to both monitors, being driven by an X850XTPE. I know with nvidia nview you can do this, but is there any way to do it with ati?

    Ive got a widescreen monitor, and hate playing games stretched that dont support widescreen, so i want to use the crt for games where its only possible to play in a normal resolution.

    yes, would have thought you could clone it.

    Can you not put your monitor in 4:3 mode rather than 16:9?

    I thought you could set games not to fill the whole screen in ati display properties... I unticked "scale image to panel size" under FPD properties in the displays tab and my games don't stretch
    Doo Doo Doo Da Da DA...

    Should be able to set up the drivers to clone your display, I forget the exact location of the settings though as I haven't used ATI control panel in a while.
