True cloning works well but you are restricted to both displays having identical resolutins and refresh; as of yet no display drivers from ATI/AMD or NV have true scaling options for cloned displays.

So you are then forced to the resolution of the smallest display.

I use a touch screen LCD for control with MAX 1024x768 so my PJ is restricted to this res as well.

You can use HotKEYS from within your drivers to change res and dispalys for flexibility BUT MP doesn't like this and tends to crash the GUI with DX errors.
