Question Dual Screen Set-Up ???

Hey Guys,

Can you explain to me how I would do a dual screen setup. My videocard is a radeon 9800pro with 128 megs of onboard memory. I want to add another monitor and not sure how to do it.

The best way is to utilize a video card that has 2 outputs..

I took a look at the article and it is good if you are looking at setting up two similar crt montiors. What if one monitor is a 17" CRT and the other is a 65" HDTV. Is the set-up the same? I have the same AIW 9800 Pro card and know that it is possible to do. While a DVI Y-splitter help me?

Thanks.
