Just recently put in another PCI video card and a IBM 14 inch monitor to test WIndows Dual monitor capabilites and i've already run into a problem! First of all, i can't seem to move certain programs over to the second monitor. Secondly, the mor improtant problem is the fact that when i try to run a 3d accelerated game, that if i have share desktop w/ the second monitor, it will not run with just my Radeon, but owuld instead try to with the secondary one as well, making the game really really really slow (i'm using a S3 Virge VX). Any ideas on how to turn off 3d acceleration on the second display adapter? I know a while back, ALienware did that with the V3 and the Geforce 256 cards. They would make it so they turn off a card when running a certain game and have it linked to one monitor via a switchbox, so i konw it works. Any ideas?
