Windows XP is still the most widely used operating systems in the world. In Windows XP and their later versions, you can connect multiple monitors to a single computer.  You can connect up to ten monitors to a single computer and you can select any monitor as the primary monitor. To enable the secondary monitors, you need to drag the items from one monitor to the other or you can resize the Windows to stretch it to more than one monitor. If you use an old desktop, you might need to install a video adapter to use the feature of multiple monitor. You can use the multiple monitor option in many of the laptops as well. To clarify any of your doubts about this, call the Windows support number. 

Try the following instructions to use the multiple screen option in the computer. 

Steps to Follow 

  • Click Start and select the Control Panel from the Start menu.
  •  From there, select the Appearance and themes and click Display. Then  select Identity and Settings.
  •  Now you can see the large digit in each screen and this shows the primary and secondary monitors.
  •  If you want to move the items between monitors, you just need to click and drag the icons together.
  • From the Settings tab, select the primary screen and click the icon, which shows the monitor that you want to choose as the primary monitor. Another method is to check the box, which says Use this device as the primary monitor. If you are adding monitors to a laptop, you can skip this step, as the primary screen is by default the laptop screen.
