How To Setup Multiple Monitors In Windows 7

Here is a quick guide to setup multiple monitors in Windows 7

STEP 1: Go To The "Appearance panel"

RIGHT-CLICK on an empty spot on your desktop and select "SCREEN RESOLUTION".

STEP 2: Activate & Extend Your New Monitor

If your new monitor is not yet detected, click on the "DETECT" button. Now, select that new monitor (it should be the one with the highest number on it) and in the "MULTIPLE DISPLAYS" menu, select "EXTEND DESKTOP TO THIS DISPLAY", then click the "APPLY" button on the bottom right.
