i know how to do it, but i have to take a loot again, to be sure.
you should be able to do it in " NVIDIA nView Desktop Manager " which you can find in control panel.
The most obvious solution is to set the wallpaper for Black/blue/green (or whatver you prefer) only.
which should then look just fine.

You need to make the wallpaper as an active desktop item eg jpg or html. If you are running 1024x768 on both, you then make a pic 1024x1536, save it as a jpg and then play with the stretch/zoom/centre settings in display until it looks fine.
From memory you can't use a bmp.
