Instead of using a video cable, DoubleView utilizes any standard Wireless LAN or Ethernet network connection to transmit the screen contents or to send keyboard/mouse input to the second PC.
DoubleView installs a virtual video driver onto your primary PC which fools Windows into thinking that an additional monitor is installed. The content of this virtual video card is compressed and transmitted to the secondary PC via any standard network connection and displayed by a small separate DoubleView Viewer program.
The primary and secondary PCs connect automatically, without requiring the entry of IP addresses.
This is the low-cost, hardware-free alternative to an expensive extra monitor and video card. You'll save a minimum of $250 by using DoubleView software instead of a hardware-based solution!
DoubleView lets you use any spare PC running Windows 98 or higher to add to your screen real estate.
The second screen display can be flipped 90, 180 or 270 degrees to accomodate screens of any dimension.
DoubleView supports screen resolutions of up to 3,200 x 1,600 pixels. Resolutions can be recalibrated instantly.
Choose to view your second screen in one of three different display modes:
Drag windows between two screens swiftly and easily, with no lag or "stickiness". DoubleView uses "on-the-fly" compression to minimize screen response time.
Just install the software on both PCs and then use a wireless network or cable connection to link the screens together.
DoubleView runs on a very low CPU output, so it won't slow your computer down.
DoubleView works with secondary PCs running Windows 98 and up.
Choose from a wide range of connection options, including a cable or wireless network, FireWire, or USB cable.
