RE: filmscanners: Dual Monitors [was: Puzzled about display resolution]
Yes as long as you have an open slot that will take that card. A PCI slot
if it is a PCI card; an ISA slot if it is an ISA card. I doubt if it is an
AGP card; and even if it was, most - if not all - motherboards only support
one AGP slot for one AGP card. After you install the two cards and the two
monitors and load the drivers for those cards and monitors, you will have to
go to the control panel and set up the dual monitor system.

Subject: filmscanners: Dual Monitors [was: Puzzled about display
resolution]
A very basic question for those who know: I have an old 15" monitor that I
want to add as a second monitor to my present 19" Trinitron, and I still
have the video card it came with from an old 486SX. My NVIDIA card does not
support 2 monitors.
Can I just install the old video card for the second monitor and save the
cost of buying a new card? I assume Win98SE will have a generic driver for
it.
