Multiple Video Cards/Monitors Win2k

[cokky27]

I have 2 monitors and a Geforce3(AGP) in my system. I want to put a PCI video card in to use dual monitors on my system. When I play games I want my default monitor to be the one using the Geforce 3. Can I and how can I accomplish these results.

there is a setting in your bois that allows the default card to be the agp or pci. the one you set as default will be the one all of your games and what not play through.

Are you familiar with the KT7-Raid board made by Abit. If so do you know if the KT7 WW bios supports that? Or do you know of a KT7 Raid Bios that does?

Thanks

Windows 2000 will let you painlessly choose which video card you want primary.

Becareful on choosing a second card. I setup alot of computers with 4 to 5 video cards in them and some cards/drivers can get to be a PIA. ATI and Matrox seem to have pretty good drivers for MM support.

Good Luck,

the bios setting of primary adapter doesn't have anything to do with what windows uses as primary adapter..you have to choose each separately.

i've used a kt7-raid and SEEN that option, but right now i can't think of where it was in the bios..but i know it's there.
