if you want your taskbar to go across both monitors check out this program called ultramon.
if you have a mac, disregard this post.

Regular screensavers work across both monitors, if that's what you're asking. Now if you want a different SS on each monitor, that I haven't tried and don't know if it's possible.

If you have a decent videocard, the OpenGL screensavers at this site are pretty neat

A monitor-related question for anyone who's computer saavy.

Well, I took the advice of whoever posted in my previous topic about getting a DVI-to-HDMI cable for hooking up my 32'' Dell LCD TV (W3201C) and I was wondering; given it's max resolution of 1366x768 are things going to be big, small, distorted, contracted -- basically, how's it going to look?

The card you got can handle that resolution perfectly.

Where is the screensave folder where I can add these to the list as an option to save it as my screensaver?

Screensavers are stored in your C\Windows\System32 folder on XP. Just extract them to there and they will show up in your SS list.

Does anyone think they can find a beach picture similar, if not the actual one, with those Corona commericals with the hammock at the beach or some chairs?
