    Anyone having issues copying and pasting between monitors?

    No.

    (I know - not a very helpful answer, but things like OS and graphics card model would narrow things down a bit!)

    I guess I could have given more detains, huh?

    Win 2K SP4.

    Primary video is onboard Intel(R) 82915E Express Chipset Family.
    Secondary is an ATI 7000 PCI card.

    I'm also using ultramon.

    It doesn't happen everytime, more like one in thee times I'll copy something on one monitor, and when I paste it on the second monitor it will paste what I copied 30 minutes ago.

    Ah! I've only ever run dual monitors with a single graphics card supplying both monitors.

    This may - or may not - be relevant.

    that's my first through, that I'm using two different video sources, but as seeing these are work machines and we had to buy the video cards if we wanted dual monitors, I didn't want to shell out the extra $10 for a PCI card with dual outlets.......but it may come to that.
