Im trying to set up dual monitors I have a Abit Radeon x600 Pro-Guru video card How do i find out if my video card is a dual head AGP? Also, with dual video cards, is it possible to be playing a game, such as Call of Duty 2, and move the mouse off onto monitor two to talk on AIM or adjust music or do whatever?
You will need twin connectors on the back of your video card first, either dual VGA or a combination of both VGA and DVI. If the latter is the case and you have two VGA Monitors, just get an adapter from VGA to DVI. I would also suggest getting Ultramon.exe program from www.ultramon.com. It's very inexpensive and works great! By the way, your card has both DVI and VGA outputs so you are almost set!
how do i use hydravision to have two completely seperate desktops, one on each screen? is that even possible?
Most here will tell you to try Ultramon if you want much more then what a normal dual monitor layout provides. Go to: www.ultramon.com and read up to see for yourself Independent task bars for each monitor, dual desktop screens and each is different from the other, etc.
