[Thinkpad] T20 and extnded desktop in a windows 2000 opertaing system

[Rob Bell]

It may well be that Win2K doesn't offer that extended desktop feature by 
default.  You may be able to see if you can upgrade to the vendor's 
latest video drivers for your display adapter, but I really have no idea 
if that will help or not.  WinXP would resolve the issue as long as your 
hardware supports it.

I have tried to use the extended feature with an external monitor, and while I can use the dual montior facility quite easily, I am unable to use the extdned desktop facility.  The properties box lists three outputs lcd, montior and TV.  but in now ay have I been able to use the exended desktop as that option does not come up.
