I have a Dell Dimension 8400 with a 17" 1704FPT LCD monitor ("UltraSharp", close as I can get). My graphics card is a ATi Radeon X300 pre-installed from Dell. When I access the Display Properties > Settings I see 2 monitors. One is

Dell 1704 FTP (Analog) on RADEON X300 Series

and the second on is

Default Monitor on RADEON X300 Series Secondary

The first monitor is cranked up to 1280 x 1024 @ 32 bits, which is the max that the first can handle (my monitors real max, and the one I change to make my monitor change)

The second is a mere 640 x 480 @ 8 bits. The max is 1920 x 1440 @ 32 bits. The option to make the monitor the default is greyed, but I have to option to extend onto the desktop this monitor.

Does anyone know whats up with the dual monitors?
