I'm trying to clone two displays on a Vista machine with an Nvidia 420 graphics card. Basically having the same screen image on both screens (different brand screens that support the same resolution). I can get the desktop spread over both screens, but not have the same screen on both. Any ideas?

The reason seems to be DRM/Trusted Computer bull and the stupid idea MS had of encrypting output from the graphics card to the display and everywhere in-between. It seems ridiculous, as it's a feature anyone giving a presentation would need. :-/

Yep, it's not there anymore. Though there is a note at the bottom of the window that says you can use this to extend or clone your display. :P Just nothing to click.
