    I am running a dual monitor setup with a Nvidia gforce4 Ti 4200. Is there anyway way possible to make the task bar stretch across both monitors? :confused:

    Also, when I select a dual monitor wallpaper it will automatically shrink it down and duplicate it on both monitors. Any ideas? :confused:

    What you are asking to do may not be possible - I am running twin monitors (22" & 17 ") on a Matrox G550 card and their Dual Head does not appear to offer that possibility - at least not with two monitors of different sizes running different resolutions and colour depths.

    If both your monitors are identical it may be possible, but the aspect ratio of, say, 2 x 17" monitors is far from standard.

    You may find something of use here

    some folks at work use this. its pretty spiffy. There are some freeware ones out there, but they require all monitors to be at the same resolution.
