Scenario: 386 box with ati vga wonder in 800x600x16 mode and a NEC 3d. I have a roomates Leading Edge hercules compatible mono monitor. What I want: Dual monitor debugging with TP for Windows and BC++. The debugger for these package claim that they support dual monitor debugging. I want to setup the 3d as my primary monitor and the LE mono monitor to "run" the debugger. I realize that I will need another display adapter to run the 2nd monitor (as well as fiddle around with the IRQ settings). What I need: I have not even begun to make any connections/setup both monitors. If anybody has any exeperience with any of this equipment, or any experience with dual monitor debugging any wisdom/advice would be a big help. Any info on Windows settings, Tdebugger settings, or general comments would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, -Fred I am too young and niave to have opinions.

I'm currently running TDW with two monitors on a 386 clone with an Everex EGA card and some no-name mono (Hercules clone) video card. I'm not sure about your setup, but the EGA card I use has switches that allow me to use the mono card as the primary monitor and the EGA as secondary. Your setup may have something like this. As for running TDW on two monitors, there are two ways to do it: A) From the DOS prompt: win tdw /do <filename> B) From windows Select TDW, get the "Properties", and add "/do" to the command line. (You only need to do this once). Start up TDW from windows. When it appears on the other monitor, do a "File|Load". Hope this helps somewhat... -- .signature: permission denied
