to whom ever posted the page with the step by step instructions on how to switch the settings in the ATI control panel on a MacbookPro. I was having no luck getting 2 moniters to work with our new MBP while using winxp. The 2 moniters would work fine with osx,but not at all with xp. After the xp splash screew would disappear,that would be the end of any activity on moniter no. 2. and it was driving me completley batty. I posted on a few other forums and no one would even suggest anything. Then,while Googling on the subject, I found a post on this forum with a pictorial on how to adjust the settings in the ATI control panel,switching moniter icons to the proper primary and secondary moniters.

I had the addy to the whole article someone posted in this forum on my clipboard,but somehow it disappeared. I ll be back with the link so the proper person can get the credit he/she definatley deserves.

once again,a big THANKS!!

edit: heres the link to the article..Enabling an external/secondary monitor on a Macbook Pro with ATI graphics chip
