Using Two NVIDIA GPU-Based Graphics Cards (Non-SLI Configuration)
Enabling nView Span and Clone Modes — Detaching the
Secondary Display
Note:
In the following steps, we’ll switch from Dualview to Span or Clone mode for
each of the two NVIDIA GPU-based graphics cards. You will notice that the
secondary displays become detached (disabled) because nView Span and
Clone modes do not detect the secondary display as separate displays.
