You can explain a whole heap more with just one picture, as the saying goes :
A picture is worth a thousand words............

I have read about people using 2 screens, I take it you would open EFI twice, & what all would you need to hook them up.Originally Posted by Kiwi Ed

AFAIK you can open multiple instances of the tuning tool when working with different OSs, but you can't actually link them. You can copy and paste values from the tables between them, but not entire segments.Originally Posted by Kiwi Ed
If you are just dealing with a single OS, you can just load the alternate tune as described above and toggle back and forth between the two. Or if you want to look at both side by side you can open a second instance of EFILive and adjust the window sizes so that both will fit on your screen.

If you have the luxury of 2 monitors running off your computer, I found this very easy to compare tunes from different OS's. 1st screen with 1 copy of EFILive Tuning and the 2nd screen with a different copy of EFILive tuning.Originally Posted by Kiwi Ed

Open 2 instances of the Tuning Tool.Originally Posted by Kiwi Ed
Click on the "Restore Down" button(green arrow).
Click(and hold) on and drag the borders of the windows around until they are sized as you want them.
Click on the top bar to drag the entire window around.
Just click on whichever window you wish to bring to the top.
You can do the same thing with the table windows themselves to resize and reposition them.
You can also drag the frame borders within the Tuning Tool to resize them.
Here's an example:
For dual monitors you will require a video card with dual outputs and an operating system that supports this(e.g. XP).

Using either a computer with 2 video outputs or a laptop with an external monitor, setup the 2nd screen as an extension of the 1st screen not as a copy (same image on both screens)Originally Posted by Kiwi Ed
Open 2 copies of EFILive Tune, drag the 2nd copy to the 2nd screen. And you should have a screen that looks like this.
