2 screens showing?

[Phoenix .]

Hello you techies.

I would like to be able to have 2 pages showing on my screen at the same time, as I am playing my Scrabble game quite a lot which is connected via FB.

I also need to switch to other net searches/pages.

this can be done but, I don't have the knowledge, anyone help me

thanks for reading. ???

Do u want to have like 2 browser windows next to eachother?
if ur using firefox just click the top left button and open a new window
unless u mean 2 screens..

If you have an ipad checknout i-display. Uses your ipad as a second monitor using your wifi connection.

I just have a few browser windows open Phonenix, as I'm quite hooked on FB Monster World currently and my plants need harvesting and stuff. :-[

If you're using windows 7, (and possibly vista, not sure) You can just grab the window by the bar at the top as if you are going to move it, and drag it out of the left side of the monitor, this will open it up as half the width of the screen, on the left hand side of the screen, you can do the same with a second window but drag it off the right of the screen and it will open up as half the screen on the right hand side, 2 windows, side by side, each occupying exactly half of your monitor... Much easier than I make it sound... off to see if I can find a video!

Or if you prefer, you can hold the windows key and press either the left or right arrow key to make the window half sized and move it to one side.

right click on task bar and show windows side by side.

Exactly what Alvoram said

You can also do it with one browser.
Most browsers have tabs, if you have a page in each tab you can drag one of the tabs to the desktop to create a new window with that tab.
Then drag to either side of the screen like Alvoram said in Windows 7 or Windows 8 desktop mode.

Thanks alvo for that, it sounds easy but for a numpty like me, i can't even find the left/right keys :-[ all I can do is click R/L on the mouse and that doesn't work and I don't know how to Drag stuff around the screen,I have just learned how to click paste
I have Google Chrome as my browser on Windows 7.

Thats what I want perp, reduced sized pages of things I am doing so I can click on anyone of them work on it then click on another.
When I scrabble then want to do my banking say,I have to click off scrabble click on banking then start scrabble again which takes i min to load each time GRRR. I wish I was clever at techie stuff
