I just installed Boot Camp on my iMac. I'm using a Dell 2408 as my main monitor, but Windows XP does not seem to let me "move" my taskbar like Mac OS X does. Is there any way to move the taskbar to the Dell monitor and use the iMac's screen as a secondary?
Thanks!

I don't know if your iMac has an ATI or Nvidia GPU, but there should be an "Advanced" button (once you click one of the little display pictures) in the Display settings that lets you make adjustments for external monitor location and where the taskbar should be. Also, if the taskbar isn't locked, shouldn't you be able to simply drag it to the monitor you want (I think you have to hold alt or ctrl to do this)? The taskbar isn't fixed like the Mac OS X menu bar.

Hmm, I found a link to some third party ATI firmware and it seemed to do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion though!
