Multiple Monitors Old Sat Jan 22, 2011 11:31:10 PM #148106 Perm Link
I Presently have the oldest computer in the house. A 5 year old Over Clocked EMachines W3108/W3117 Blend, NVidia GeForce8500, CPU Cooler, 2GB Patriot Ram, Modded Case... (She's my Baby) Running Dual Display on XP with the 8500 Runs Great!
Looking into a new monitor setup for the new computer I am building. Got a crossfire enabled board though I see no sense in boosting the graphics beyond the NVidia GT240 I'm purchasing. I'm not making movies for Gods sake! I currently have NVidia GEForce 8500 Which has worked fine for years.
Been looking at the 9X multiple display systems (OMG just a little pricey). To avoid the expense of these specialized systems; does anyone know if Windows 7 will support multiple graphics cards (2) running multiple displays (4).
If we dont get an answer soon we will because I'm gonna try it!

P.S. Do we have a line on slimline displays???

I'm fairly sure that Windows XP and higher (probably even 2000) can do what you want.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

I've actually found Windows 7 to be very adaptable to hardware wishes and needs. It's better to use the manufacture's driver's rather than let windows look. I don't see any reason you would have a problem.

absolutely. nvidia and ati have made it pretty easy to run multiple monitors on dual card setups.

We have made the present, obsolete,
What do you want? What do you need?
We'll find a way when all hope is gone
