I have am going to have two displays, one (TFT) that will run at 1600x1200, and another I want to run at 1280x1024. Can anyone confirm that this works under winXP?

Yes it definitely works. Of course if you have an OEM version of the card, you will need a DVI to VGA convertor that will set you back about $50, but it works great. The retail version comes with the adapter.

I hope that was a typo, you can get those things for around $6 at mwave
