A multi-screen display system (10) comprises a plurality of display screens (18a-n) interconnected to form one large screen, preferred a concave shape about the user (30). Stored within memory of a computer (12) is each screen's position data relative to the assumed user position. Optionally, an adjustment data set can be created and used to update the screen position data so that it designates the actual user position instead of the assumed user position. Each screen is connected with the computer's graphics control circuitry (16) which comprises a graphics processor, either two-dimensional (44a-n), three-dimensional (46a-n) or both, that is capable of causing image data to be displayed on a corresponding screen. The graphics control circuitry further comprises a multi-screen controller circuit (52) that receives image data from an application program executing on the computer and then forwards that image data to the correct graphics processor for display. In this way, the system can display a single contiguous image or many two-dimensional or three-dimensional images simultaneously.
