I've recently switched back to a dual monitor setup on my Win98
PC and I need want to have different wallpaper on each monitor.
The extra multi monitor stuff in UltraMon is nice and all, but
it doesn't justify $40us price tag.
I'm in the same boat... but there's a trick that, at least, works in
Windows 2000, so it might work in Win98 too:
Stitch together the two wallpapers in some graphics program (GIMP,
PhotoFiltre, ...), so the total size equals the format of your dual
monitor setup (in my case, 864*2304 = two wallpapers of 864*1152).
Save this graphics file under C:\Windows in BMP format (Windows 98
requires this, IIRC). Choose it as your wallpaper in Control Panel >
Display, and set the "Tile" option. Normally, this should show you
the two different wallpapers on different monitors.
Hope it helps,
