I recently was trying to help my boss use his laptop for a presentation- We
connected his Dell Inspiron 2650, with Windows XP Home to the projector.
And, instead of the desktop just appearing on both screens (as I usually see)
it was as though the desktop only extended onto both screens at once. For
example, if I dragged the mouse to the edges of the laptop screen, it would
eventually appear on the projection screen. I could also drag windows across
the two monitors. However, what we really wanted to accomplish was just
having the desktop projected onto both monitors. (i.e. Having all the icons,
the start bar, etc. show up on both monitors.) How do we go about this? I
Have tried resizing and changing some other settings, but nothing has worked
so far.
