Dual monitor support

[msb2ncsu]

I am about to purchase a new Cornerstone 19" monitor but don't exactly feel like chucking my 17" MagInnovision out the window. I was thinking of setting up a dual monitor thingy so I could still do stuff on my desktop while playing games and such. First off does it really work this way? And second, I have a Gainward GeForce2 ti\450 64Mb card at the moment. I will be upgrade to the GF4 some time in the next month or so but was wondering if there was just like a PCI card that does Dual monitor so I can keep using the card I have and not have to worry when my card gets replaced.

Dual monitors are a great way of doubling your desktop real estate, ideal for multitasking in the same program or in different programs.

However, usually when in a game, your secondary monitor becomes useless.

Sorry, I don't really understand your second question.

you only get 1 start bar...basically you can just drag a window to your other screen


i dont understand the 2nd question either

Question #2:
I use an old voodoo banshee in mine. Just about any card that will work with your Geforce 2 should work with a G4.
