Hi There.
Thinking of getting Hoster to run my karaoke shows. I have a Sharp 1515 laptop, 512 meg and a S3 Twister graphics card but it says 'multiple monitors' and not dual. I can plug an extra monitor in but this just shows my desktop. Is the image on the singers screen a software thing on Hoster?:?

I dont think you will ever see the term dual monitors. Look on the screen for "Entend desktop" that will make the desktop span your monitors instead of clone it.

Right click on the Desktop, where there is no Icon. Left click on Properties. Left click the Settings tab. On this tab you should see Monitor 1 and Monitor 2. If you have dual display. Click on Monitor 2 and then check the box below that states "Extend My Windows Desktop onto this Monitor".

If it has this then it should work for Dual Display, but that Video chip that you have, may not work correctly with Hoster. We have had alot of problems in the past with the S3 chipsets.
