We have several PC's with Matrox dual head video cards here. One output goes to the monitor, the other to a projector. I want to clone what is on the monitor and show it on the projector. Matrox defaults to expanding the desktop. I have learned that I can setup a hotkey to enable cloning, but I cannot find a way to make cloning the default. Any suggestions?

Thanks...
 
I have the same question. I have a GX400 dual head VGA display card and it works great. BUT, I would like to clone the display. I bought an OEM card so I don't know if this is even possible.

Expanding the desktop is great, but there are still times that I'd like to clone. Case in point is Windows Media player. If I try to play it full screen, it does, but NOT on the 2nd monitor. If I set the 2nd monitor [which is the projecter] to be primary, it is hard to see everything going on as I am over 100' from the display screen....
