Running 3 monitors
 
I have dual monitors right now, and just can't seem to be working as efficient as I would like to. I want to add a third but am not sure the best way to do this.

I currently only have 1 video card that accepts dual monitors. I think I need to add a second card ? I only have one video slot and its in use .. not sure if I could use a regular PCI card?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Yes, you'd have to purchase a PCI version of the card and it'll work fine. Make sure to select "boot from AGP" card in the BIOS so it skips the PCI card when you boot up.

PCI card.. as gg1e21 said :)

I have an old crappy PCI card from a p3-733 kicking around .. Will this be ok ? Is it that easy?

I am currently running hydravision with my 2 monitors and can scroll my mouse across these 2.. the third will be included right, and its configurable most likely in the same software?

Thanks again!

Won't hurt to try it :)
My nForce2 worked fine with a 3-head setup.

Yep, or try www.UltraMon.com for taskbars at the bottom of screen.

any downside to mixing a good video card with a low performance one?

thanks for the help, I'll let you know how it goes :)
