Follow the instructions here, it's a reasonably easy process. Be warned once you have introduced yourself to having two monitors to work with going back to one is insanely frustrating. I commonly feel like I am missing a limb.

oh wow thx now i can play toribash with more space

I know what you mean Fee something is just wrong once you go back to 1 monitor

After you've tasted two.. Thre's no going back for one..

somebody should close this as solved before the sexual innuendos start piling up from dargon and fee's comments xD

i keep meaning to go to two monitors

I swap between 1,2,3 and 4 monitors constantly. Different things need different amounts of monitors.

I don't really need 4 monitors to play Skyrim or check my emails.
It does help that I built my own screen splitter scripts that let me automatically reshape and move windows (eg move a window to the top right corner, move another to the left side, and a third to the bottom right corner). Personal taste.
