display-monitor-attributes-list (I think it's a function) is a very
recent feature from the very last emacs versions
(in my emacs 24.3.1 is not present).

display is in the form HOST:SERVER.SCREEN.  I think it only makes
sense if you are using an Xserver in a unix-like OS.  In Win32 with a
single screen specifying t instead of ":0.0" should be enough
(but emacs compiled for Cygwin in Windows would be using an Xserver).

M-: (x-display-list) should give you a list of the displays available.

You can have a look at the emacs manual
M-: (info "(elisp) Multiple Terminals")
