I have Media Center Edition with a Dell 8400, running a ATI Radeon X300 video
card. I have my primary monitor plugged into the VGA plug. A second monitor
is plugged into the DVI plug (using a converter plug). They are now running
under the extended Desktop mode. I am trying to set it up to run in a "clone
view" mode, so that other parties can sit across my desk and see the same
screen I am working with on my primary Desktop monitor.

Can anyone advise if and how this can be done?

Display Properties->Settings->Advanced & set up the 2nd monitor to clone the
first.
