Re: [H] Running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro

Re: [H] Running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro

I don't need that kind of video processing power, or the price! Found 2 512 MB 2600pros for $120 total with $20 MIR. Should satisfy my needs nicely. Thanks Jim Maki [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -Original Message- > From: Behalf Of j maccraw > There is also the 3870X2 from Asus which has quad DVI

Re: [H] Running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro

There is also the 3870X2 from Asus which has quad DVI ports though I know not if it suffers from the fan issues of other 3870x2's and then there is the price. James Maki wrote: > Thanks for the response. It seems that multiple video cards to drive > multiple monitors is successful. > > After fi

Re: [H] Running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro

Thanks for the response. It seems that multiple video cards to drive multiple monitors is successful. After finally figuring out the correct search phrase (PCI-E X16 x4 bandwidth) I found several sites that discuss using a pci-e x16 video card in a x16/x4 bandwidth slots. Thanks for the help.

Re: [H] Running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro

Rick, Thanks for the response. I have several additional questions-- 1) Do all 4 monitors show up Properties | Settings? 2) Are all the video cards of similar vintage/type? 3) Are you using PCIe (x16 or x4) or a mixture of PCIe, AGP and/or PCI? Thanks Jim > -Original Message- > From:

[H] Running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro

I searched and cannot find a definitive answer to the question of running 3 monitors in Windows XP Pro. I have an Abit IP35 Pro (socket 775) board with two PCI-e x16 slots. One operates at x16, the other at x4. I am currently running a dual monitor setup with a DVI 19" 4x3 screen and a vga 15" 4x
