So all you want is to be able to run 2 instances of Legacy at the same time?

Ian -
Open Legacy in split screen view. DO NOT maximize the screen in your
monitor.
Then, stretch Legacy across the two monitors (pull left or right side of
Legacy across to the second monitor).
You can then size the screen to both monitors - but DO NOT maximize.
