Default hey computer people...

How does one go about setting up dual monitors for a computer? How do I know that a video card will support this? Is there a special name for this?


winner gets rep then I'll kill this thread

step 1: buy video card that supports dual monitors
step 2: buy 2nd monitor
step 3: remove old video card
step 4: install new video card
step 5: install video card software
step 6: plug in 2nd monitor

ok, I got it all worked out now. Thanks guys.

I feel guilty deleting a thread in which a pregnant woman enjoys so this will stay for now.

oh yeah, if you don't like the multiple desktop manager software the card you get comes with (if it even comes with any at all) then I highly recommend this 3rd party software http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/. Its way faster and easier to use and understand than the big, slow nvidia software... it's not free, unfortunately...
