It begs the question why, but I can"t be bothered.  ;)

To change from one to the other, you right-click on your desktop, select properties, select the settings tab, and check/uncheck the "extend my windows desktop to this monitor" box.

But why?

If you"re using an nVidia Graphics Card in your PC, you should be able to configure it to "Clone" by going Start > Control Panel > NVIDIA Control Panel. Similar with other brands  of Graphics adapters.
