I have a V5 5500 64MB PCI and a Matrox G-400 32MB AGP. If I set the V5 as primary VGA, and use the Matrox as secondary moniter, can I still use the dual head feature of the Matrox?

For instance:
#1 moniter 19" on the V5
#2 moniter 17" on the first head of the Matrox
#3 moniter TV on the second head of the Matrox, viewing a DVD

I see no reason why it shouldnt work like this. Anyone tried anything similar?

I can't say for sure, but one way to find out is to try it, i don't think it could hurt anything
