3 monitors?

**grandma** · August 10th, 2002, 12:20 AM

Can you use a dual head (Matrox G550) video card and a pci video card to run 3 displays in Windows XP?

Just wondering.

Thanks

Woohoo! on the 3 monitors. A new project tomorrow.

One last thing,

How about Dual monitors Using 1 PCI card and 1 AGP Video card using Windows 2k Advanced Server?

I have some fellow workers that say it can't be done.
Has anyone actually accomplished this?

Thanks

yes this can be done too, I used to have dual monitors (1 on AGP and 1 on PCI) on my Win2K box - it wasn't server but it shouldn't make a difference.

I have a program called Ultramon that is much better for using for dual monitor setups than Windows, it gives more options and is more user friendly. PM me and I'll email it to you if you want.
