dual screen systems

is there any way that you can make a new system use two screens at once other than having a mobo that is designed for this. It is a new Compaq with onboard and a new Nvidia GF4 installed on it.

A second video card is required. From what i know, the 3DFX cards are well suited to this.

Have a look at this: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;307397

you can also use nView

If you have two outputs on the back of your video card you can use nView in the display properties. You can then select a second output and put whatever you like on it.
