More Monitors... Better |
I have been playing with dual monitors on my new Dell 4600. I even convinged Jennifer to go to a Multi-monitor setup. She loves it and would not go back.
In fact, we are both trying to figure out how to get more monitors. After extensive research on the capabilities of Windows XP (Up to 9 monitors), I purchased a board on eBay to handle the job... I only have one thing to say... oops. A Colorgraphics Pro Lightning V+ PCI VGA card with quad (4) heads does not work AT ALL in Windows XP. Fortunately it was cheap.
Next, after putting the ATI Rage 128 Pro for a second monitor, I added a SiS 315E from Tiger Direct (great place). I put the cards in and the SiS 315E did not work. It made hideous stripes on my screen. I put the SiS 315E below the ATI 128 Rage Pro card and it worked just fine.... WHEW!! It looks good. I will add one more SiS 315E card for the top left monitor. The top right monitor is actually the Gateway computer to the far left.
I use a great IOGear digital CVM switch and a manual switch (Deep under the left monitor out of site). Between all the switches and monitors, I control a Windows XP machine, 3 Windows 98SE machines and a Linux machine (currently with a crashed hard drive.. oh well).
Now I guess I have to get back to work.
Oh, and yes, that is a TV on the far left... it's speakers are visible under the Gateway. Our Home Fun Photography David Thing Date taken: 2004-08 Important Links: Tiger Direct Web Site |
