2. The following dialog box should appear once the display is connected:
   


3. Select the second option, to extend your desktop, and click OK. You’re done!

For Windows XP, follow these steps:

1. Right-click on the desktop and select Properties.
   
2. Switch to the Settings tab. You should see two monitors displayed here, labeled “1” and “2”.
   
3. Right-click on the monitor labeled “2” and ensure there is a check next to the Attached option.
   
4. In the main Display Settings pane, place a check in the box labeled “Extend the desktop onto this monitor”.
   
   

5. Click OK.

Now you’re ready to present your demos in dual-screen mode. To enable dual-screen presentation mode in DemoMate, simply press the ‘HOME’ key while presenting or previewing a demo. This will switch the demo to training mode. Here, click the Dual-Screen button in the right pane to begin presenting your demo on both screens.
