Connecting 4 monitors to desktop

[Raj]

Hi All:

Has anyone hooked up 4 monitors to one computer? Should
I use 2 video cards (each with dual monitor capability)?
Will Windows XP be able to handle 4 monitors and will the
operating system allow me to extend my desktop over the 4
monitors? Thanks in advance for your help and any
recommendations will be helpful.

It SOUNDS logical. I would bet Windows coould do it. I know with the 4+
port video cards, their drivers do all the work for you.

I have one machine with three monitors, and two video cards, so in theory,
your setup should work unless Windows XP has an issue with Dual View and
using it twice..
