twin display f12

[pankaj singh]

Hi siddhesh.poyarekar at gmail.com
Thanks for your reply.
I did in same way but the monitor is not detecting. It is displaying no
signal.
Yes I would like to mention that its 64 bit system.
I have been trying it since one month and I have search the net almost
everyday for the solution but no luck yet.
Thanks
Pankaj
