I just bought a Gforce FX 5200 from Nvidia, if I were to buy a DVI-I to VGA adapter for it (specifically from ATI) can I run two monitors from the one card by plugging in a second monitor?
The adapter is on the way, so I sure hope so =)
thanks for the info ... i'm sure somebody has tried this... lemme know if it works or not.

Yes you can run two monitors on that card, from what I know every 5200 and up can do 2 monitors.

IN fact there should be a DVI-to-VGA convertor included with the video card.

i have installed two monitors,first is using VGA and second is using DVi.Make sure your second monitor has Dvi ports. It works very well.

>>"if I were to buy a DVI-I to VGA adapter for it (specifically from ATI)"
DVI and VGA are standards, so it should not matter where you obtain the adapter from.
>>"IN fact there should be a DVI-to-VGA convertor included with the video card."
Unless it was bought OEM, or possibly used.
>>"Make sure your second monitor has Dvi ports."
The monitor doesn't need a DVI connection, if she gets the DVI to VGA adapter.
