Using two monitors and two apps simultaneously

I would like to connect two monitors to a single PC and have them display two different apps, or better yet, two different desktops at the same time. How can this be accomplished? Please give clear instructions, from the video card requirements to OS settings.

Thanks, Stoner79. My primary concern is having two different apps display at the same time. So monitor1 would display Word or Outlook only and monitor2 would display Internet Explorer only. How can this be done?
That can be done by just having the size of the windows set to a custom size and not full screen, then just drag it over to the 2nd monitor.
johnqgalt,

Thanks
