Indeedy, you'll need to disable the windows way of doing things "extend desktop" and if you are using nview, enable it. (log off/reboot) Under advanced display settings you should have the ability to do a "horizontal span" superwide "monitor" as Lab suggests.
Unfortunately, this has the effect of disabling individual monitor settings & control, since it is shifting everything to the one driver. Also, it gives whacky effects if you have video mirror enabled, forces the start bar across the monitors chosen & disables all "multi-monitor" stuff. Also, you may find many full-screen mode programs that don't allow super-wide displays (ie, locked to the usual 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 etc) having a really hard time running. (There is a reason "superwide" isn't standard, lol)
Of course, it only works with (as lab said) dual-head cards. If you have 2 or more cards to get the extra display, you won't be able to use the "superwide" monitor.
Depends on the setup really, and if you need windows/games functionality or directX full screen most.
(PS, Lab, how big is that sphere thing ?)
