Dual monitors w/GF3 Ti200 and Win2K -- Please help!

[LookOutBelow]

Has anyone gotten dual monitor support to work with a single GF3 Ti200 video card in Windows 2000?

I've got a PNY Verto GF3 Ti200 and have two monitors plugged into it (got a DVI-to-analog adapter for the 2nd monitor). Right now I'm seeing double -- same thing on both screens. But I can't figure out how to switch on TwinView to have an expanded desktop across both monitors! (I thought that's what TwinView was supposed to let you do).

It looks like Win2K is just not recognizing the 2nd monitor -- I still only see one in the Device Manager, and the Display Properties only shows one Display in the "Settings" tab as well.

Maybe I'm missing something here... Is it just not possible to use 2 monitors plugged into the same GF3 Ti200 card for a dual-monitor, expanded desktop display? I assumed it was, but maybe I need to get another PCI card...?

I just got the latest drivers off NVidia's site, and I'm up to date with Win2K service packs/patches.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks,
John

i don't believe that the Geforce3 actually has twinview capabilities. those Geforce3 cards with DVI were simply meant for you to attach a single LCD. it's not like the ATi cards that have a separate RAMDAC for both the DVI and the VGA port.

I have the Aopen version of the same card. You will need to get a PCI card to run two monitors. It works great though.
