How can I split one large display into two?

Chainsaw?
I'm not sure i get what you want to do. 19" wide isn't exactly large and i don't know what you mean by splitting it.
Cheers

Windows 7 lets you snap a document to the left and the right half of the screen. Picture two web browsers or word documents side by side, perfectly lined up. That might help. Otherwise if you have the space and an extra port on your video card just get a second monitor.

Don't need Windows 7 to do that, just select multiple applications in the taskbar with pressing control and then right click one to see the options. Cheers!

Use Alt-Tab. If you're using Win7, Win-Tab is also helpful.

But I'm with Srek on this one. Your request makes no sense, thus far.

Since you brought up Alt + Tab....

You can use Win + Arrow Left and Arrow Right to snap your document as described above on Win 7 as well. Even more handy, if you do have dual monitors you can Shift + Win + Left Arrow, Right Arrow to move your window to the next monitor, in the same relative position. Actually, the Windows 7 hotkeys are pretty awesome, look them up if you haven't already. You can even middle click pinned apps to open a 2nd instance, like tabs in Firefox.
