Some other display options may also be available. N.B. All of these display options are dependant on your version of Windows and/or the control software that comes with your graphics card.
Additionally, if you use Win8, Win10, or Win11, you can easily set a different pape to each monitor from within Windows itself with no need for a 3rd party app.
Simply go to Settings/Personalisation/Backgrounds and then right click on an image on the backgrounds list and set it to whichever monitor you want it to be the background on.
For Win7 and earlier though, you either have to use an image editor to make a custom dual-monitor pape of the max. pixel dimensions of both screens combined and then add the images you want as the backgrounds for each monitor to that custom pape, or you have to use a 3rd party app to individually set a different pape to each screen.
