I am trying to have XP display on two monitors at the same time and cannot get it to work.
I fond this is a forum and followed it to the letter but still I do not get the monitor control panel in XP to show me the two-screen choice.
>> To be able to work in the dual monitor mode please go to the "View" menu, choose the "Customize..." option, then open the "Coherence" tab and check the "Use multiple displays" option. Then please open Parallels, go to Preferences, Appearance menu and check the "Change MacOSX resolution" option. After that please check the resolutions of the monitors that you will use. Change the resolutions of both monitors to be the same. (E.g. if you have a Macbook, change the image to 1024 x768 stretched to match the standard square monitor (4:3 viewing ratio) <<
Anybody know what I am doing wrong or what else needs to be done?
FYI my MBP immediately sees both screens. I am on X.4.10 and latest version of Parallels.
