I got an extra 21" Sony laying here and was wondering if anyone here used a dual monitor configuation? I have a Gainward Ti 4600 with dual outputs.

I tried it before and it was neat. I did have a problem with interference, but not sure if it was from my speakers or the monitor's being to close together.

all you do is hook up the 2nd monitor to your gainward and your power strip assuming u have 1. then you go to display properties, then settings. then there should be a thing that says 1. Sony 21'' Monitor on Gainward Geforce 4 ti 4600. find add new monitor.
if the new one is on the left, then you'll select the second monitor from the box and drag it to the left, if it is on the right, drag the monitor to the right.
then, with the 2nd monitor still selected, set the resolution for it, make sure it matches the other one. i don't think u can add icons to it since when u run sam it only runs it on a primary monitor so you might just wan't to use it keep windows on, BTW you can opes it adn drag it over to monitor 2.


good luck, and i hope you needed that. if you didnt ill go loco on u :twisted: :evil: :mad:
