Dual monitor on Windows 7

Hello there

We are currently trying to have our  View Windows 7 VMs  running with double displays on our Wyse V10L thin clients. (using dedicated cables)

it works fine, but the VMs see the desktop as a wide one, with  a huge resolution ( depending on what displays are connected behind )

As a result, when one clicks open a windows, this one opens on the entire desktop, thus covering both displays ..  ( instead of one..)

Is there any special Windows 7 parameters we should put into the VMs configuration ?

any ints ?

thanks for your time and answers ..

Reboot the client and while booting the wyse client before login go to the display settings and select the span monitor option.

Save the settings and try login in to your vdi. it should fix your issue.
