Let me explain my desktop setup before I ask my question.

I have 1 Video card with two DVI output.
I have two matrox triplehead2go devices each plugged into one of the video card ports.
Each of the matrox devices have three 19 inch dell monitors on it.

So windows thinks I have 2 monitors at 3840x1024 one above the other.
here is the best way to describe it:

I can get WoW to work on the top three or bottom three monitors easily enough but how can
I get it to span all 6? (keeping in mind that windows only thinks I have two monitors).

The behavior of the windows desktop is as if the two 3840x1024 monitors are the same. IE: I cannot have two different desktop backgrounds or 1 3840x2048 image (which I have tried).

SoftTH appears to only work for 3 monitors. Is this accurate?

You have to be running WinXP and use Vertical spanning. Vista and Win7 don't offer it. That, or get an Eyefinity6.

(Also, moved post to proper forum)

Ibrin, Yeah, I did more research and found that the GeForce card I use does not use DualView that
comes with nView on Vista or Windows 7 (Bad call on nVidias judgement there).

Rookjcarter, what does it matter what I play where is that relevant?
