Finally discovered a way to accomplish this without the need for third party software: Go to Display Properties (right click on desktop > Properties). Set the background to None and choose a dark solid color background. In the Desktop tab click Customize Desktop . Click the Web tab. Click New then specify which image you'd like to use. The image needs to be the same size as the full resolution of your combined displays, i.e. 2560x1024. Click OK [desktop items]. Click OK [display properties]. Drag the image on your desktop so that it fills both screens. Go back to Display Properties > Customize Desktop > Web tab. Check ' Lock desktop items '. Click OK [desktop items]. IMPORTANT : Click the X button. DO NOT CLICK OK OR APPLY . Occasionally after a reboot I'll have to redo these steps because Active Desktop breaks, but if you don't reboot very often it's not an issue. Recommendation : Google Image Search (with quotes) &q

I've been having issues lately with my ATV2 randomly restarting itself when Netflix video is paused, on the home screen, and when music is playing but the screensaver is on. This usually happens about two minutes after any of these variables activates. A forum user had a similar issue with random reboots and it was suggested that they restore the AppleTV. Trying this, I still had issues with reboots mid-restore. Two options here: buy a MicroUSB M/M cable to restore the device with iTunes OR  do a factory settings restore THEN a full factory software restore. Strangely enough, the latter worked perfectly for me.
