Not sure what your exact setup is, but using a GeForce 4 Ti 4400 with 2 19" monitors and the Nvidia drivers I was able to play Quake III fullscreen across both monitors. (Well, "able to play" being a relative term. It was damned near impossible to aim as the crosshair was split between the two monitors, with 4 inches of dead space between the adjoining edges of the screens. :) -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
