AIW 9000 - Secondary display

S

spoon2001

I have an AIW 9000 Pro. Device Manager lists two devices under "Display
Adapters" - All-in-Wonder 9000, and "All-in-Wonder 9000 - Secondary".

What is this secondary display adapter? Is it the TV-out function of the
AIW 9000?

As I understand it, the DVI-I connector does not support two displays at the
same time; rather the DVI-I means it can output either an analog or digital
signal, but not both at the same time. So I'm assuming this "secondary"
adapter isn't referring to a second display that I can run from the single
DVI-I connector.

Or does it refer to another display card that can be plugged into a PCI
slot?

Sorry for this elementary question, but I couldn't find the answer in the
documentation, or on the ATI website, or by googling.
