Can I duplicate an extended desktop?
Howdy,
Latitude E6430 with a docking station. I don't know if this is a Dell thing or a Windows thing but here's what I want to do...
Laptop Screen - 1
Two External Monitors - 2 & 3 (both connected through VGA ports on the dock)
I want to take screen 1 and Extend that onto screen 2. I then want to Duplicate screen 2 onto screen 3. The end result is screen 1 is the main display and screen 2 and 3 are a mirror extension of that. So, if I show a Powerpoint, I can control it form the laptop screen (1) and I can have the same presentation showing on screens 2 & 3 for multiple people to view it.
Is that possible? I haven't found any way to do it through the built in Extend/Duplicate options available in Windows. I know I can do this with a VGA splitter but I need to knwo if there's a way to do it WITHOUT using a splitter. Even if I have to install other software to make it work somehow I'd consider that too.
Thanks!
