Hi all,
Since there are a few among us that have problems with multiple screen setup
Here some tips.

HARDWARE

If your Videocard can handle 2 monitors at the same time you probably won´t
have
any problems.
If you have to install a second videocard to have a 2 monitor setup make
sure 
They use the same video chipset and drivers with equal or more memory,
In other words your primary video card is 8xAGP FX5500 (Geforce) then you
should
Search after a PCI FX5500 (Geforce) card (older systems)

In my vista Ultimate computer I have 2 times Point of view GF 8500GT
with 1Gb memory (interface is pci-express x16)video cards
4 x 22´screens are attached to this cards.
DX4WIN is splitted over 3 screens and all remains where I putted it    


SOFTWARE

First of all in DX4WIN|PREFERENCES|SCREEN Tab
"Leave all windows in original position" should be checked.
Otherwise the above won´t work
