I got this idea because I’m always switching between screens and computers to get things done when working on the computer. So this required a bit on disentanglement to get to the correct wiring of all the screens. I have a DVI KVM for all the computers to one screen so for the second screen I directly wired it to the Vista PC for dual screen mode.

I setup dual screen though the Nvidia 7800 GT card and then I installed Ultramon which is a software specifically for Vista dual screen mode and adds extra features of controlling all the windows and how they interact which is fantastic.

Overall it took me an hour to put things together and drill the table to mount the Ergotron LX Dual Monitor Desk Mount, it is one heavy piece of equipment. This whole setup is very worth it when using dual screens, and its a high quality build.
