How do I set up the second monitor on the same computer?

Hi all

I've got a old 15" LCD and I would like to hook it up with my current 17" LCD.
Tried plugging this "adapter" on and plugging it on the port but no response.
Do I need to goto control panel -> display to do something?
Thanks in advance.

You can do it!

The process is fairly simple.

I am not sure what Operating System you are using, so the exact way may be different than described.

Windows XP:

Normally, you can right click the desktop view of Windows, and go to Properties.

Once there, you go to the Settings tab. (I think! :) )

You should be able to choose the second monitor from the drop-down menu.

Then check the "extend my desktop to this monitor" box.

This is all off of memory, as I use Vista now, so forgive me if it isn't exact!

Best of luck!
