If you had run Linux it would have been possible.. but as you run windows. I don't know. Maybe you could emulate it some way.. but don't know how.

There are two options:

1. Implement a usb display device using your own protocol, and write corresponding windows driver.

2. Implement a usb display device using a protocol that already has a windows driver (displaylink, sisusb, etc.).

Both options are far from trivial.

^This guy.


I read somewhere that in Linux you can use VNC to create a fake second desktop. It involves some trickery and stuff but it can be done. I'm not sure at all on the details though D:
