If you mean mirroring the exact image(s) on a second monitor, then I'd
have to say that is possible. Also, you should remove your phone number from your signature. On Feb 12, 3:53 am, "k" wrote: Hello! Does a two VGA output videocard allow to show a divx movie on a secondary monitor while working on the main monitor? Best regards, Dima +79035093892 |

It would have to be a very powerful video card, but yes.

"k" wrote in message oups.com... Hello! Does a two VGA output videocard allow to show a divx movie on a secondary monitor while working on the main monitor? Yes that is something I do all the time with my Radeon card. I do work on the 22" crt while watching avi's on the 22" lcd. If you extend your desktop on to a secondary monitor you can drag any window on to either screen. Multi monitor software like UltraMon helps you to manage the extra screens. Very handy stuff |

Hello! Does a two VGA output videocard allow to show a divx movie on a secondary monitor while working on the main monitor? Yes. You can use DVI to VGA adapters if the mainstream/modern NVIDIA or ATI video card has DVI outputs instead. Or, you can use two different video cards. Speaking from much experience. If you are using Windows, you don't need any monitor management software. Windows connects the monitors in whichever direction you like. If you have the second monitor configured to the right side, your mouse continues past the right side of your main monitor into the left side of your second monitor. You can drag windows from the first to the second monitor and back. Currently... I put the taskbar, instant messaging, calendar, and hardware monitoring on the secondary monitor to my right side. And sometimes I play videos over there too. Functionally, it's no different than having the monitors physically connected, except that maximizing a window occurs in the one screen where the window most resides, and the taskbar goes on only one screen. Windows XP will reopen windows in whatever monitor they closed in. That's how Windows does it, monitor management software can do things differently but I wouldn't mess with it, adding stuff to Windows complicates things. In my opinion. The usefulness of a second monitor is proportional to your busyness at the computer. If you have a lot to do, multiple monitors are very useful. If you have little to do, the additional monitor(s) might seem like a waste. Good luck and have fun. Best regards, Dima ... |

Because this is a public forum. Would you like the world to call your
phone? I'll give you a call a few 100 times if you'd like. I'll let the phone ring, then hang up. :-) On Feb 12, 10:18 pm, "k" wrote: Why should I remove my phone number from my signature? Best regards, Dima- Hide quoted text |
