Re: XP Multiple monitors and VPC

Hi,
I have XP with multiple monitors attached to it. My primary monitor (my laptop screen) is of widescreen format while the secondary is a regular LCD with a different resolution. In XP I can specify the resolution for each of the monitors and then select "Stretch my desktop".

The problem is when I launch my VPC instance - it opens in the second monitor (that is where I want it) but with the resolution of my primary monitor (I don't want this). Is there a way to specify the resolution for the VPC instance?


You might want to ask in the virtualpc newsgroup.
