Multi-monitor setup

Postby Bonzonie » Wed Aug 06, 2003 9:50 am

I've got a spanking new machine with a GeForce FX 5200 card... It's got a DVI and Analog output so I  thought I can try a multi-monitor setup using my older monitor.

I have my new monitor connected to the DVI and am trying to connect my old monitor to the analog output.

How do I get this working? Is it hopeless??

I'm sure this would help my eyes....  :D

Hi Bonz!

I've had a similar problem with my FX5600, I found un-installing and re-installing my Nvidia detonator drivers and setting up N-View seemed to do the trick! - After I'd done this, voila! I had my desktop on both displays! :)

Hope this helps......

Paul.
