I run an ancient DOS program in Win XP Pro with dual monitors under a
Matrox 550 video card.  Here's the setup when I right-click the icon for
the DOS program:
Program tab:
        Run: Maximized.  Close on exit checked.
Screen tab:
        Usage: Full Scren
Misc tab:
        Termination: Warn if still active checked
Compatablility tab:
        Run in compatibility mode: not checked
        Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution: not checked.  Nothing checked on
this tab.

Runs fine, though on both monitors at once.
