I have an ATI Radeon X1800 GTO with two dual-link DVI monitors attached to it. It's configured to act as one large screen. The background image doesn't stretch across both screens though; it just centers itself on each monitor. I know it's possible, but I can't see an option for having a picture stretch across the background on both screens. Could anyone help me?

I would also like to know if I can have a different background image on each screen. Thanks.

Looking for future alternative for backup of a good size home network. Been using a old tape backup - Good but its slow & old & wont grow with my setup.

Im not ruling out raid, but will likely still want some form of formal 'storage backup' whether raid is involved or not.

The problem is that the ink carriage keeps getting jammed on the far right side. I stuck my hand in and found cruddy gunk stuck to the metal rod that it slides on. I think maybe I could wipe it off with a rag and a little WD 40 and re-lubricate it at the same time, but I wonder if this is ok because I don't want to end up with grease on my paper. Otherwise I'd have to ship it out to get fixed and I don't think the warrenty is good any more.
