Hi,
I just purchased an NVidia fx5200 graphics card for the purpose of plugging
in two monitors. When I purchased the card I stated that th ecard is to
support two monitors (IE dual). The guy was adamant it would.
When I boot with this installed, I get identical output on both monitors
instead of two desktops. In Display Settings there is only on Monitor show
so I can't "Extend". In Hardware in the Control Panel it shows only 1 actual
monitor (I have a 21" and a 17"). Previously this worked great with an
ancient S3 V375DX card, but driver support seems to have disappeared.
What do I need to do to have 2 desktops?
TIA
