Dual monitors?

Is it possible to set up a client PC, running XP, and have it output Sage on a TV and also output XP to a monitor at the same time? In other words, I would like to have 1 PC in my room that allows sage to be watched on my TV, while still being able to use the computer for other tasks on another monitor.

I use Placeshifter with dual monitors, so I don't see why not. You may have some occasional weirdness with pop-up dialog boxes appearing on the wrong screen, but for the most part it should work.

Use extended desktop and watch sage on the extended desktop. Most software will autmatically open on the promary monitor, so if you watch sage on the extended monitor, it should keep those other programs out of your way.

It works for me in Vista x64. One note, I had to change the Video Renderer setting in the Detailed Setup to DirectX (VMR9) to get the video content to show up on the secondary monitor.
