Hi to All:
I have a quick question, I have two 21.3" lcds, one hooked up to a FX6800 ultra AGP NVIDIA card and the second hooked up to a fx5200 PCI NVIDIA card, I want to span across both, but it will not do it, is this impossible to do ? will nview only work and span across both monitors if I put the dvi connectors from the lcd's into the back of the FX6800 ultra I do not want to do that bought the second card to free up the 6800 from working to hard.Thank you for your help.
Regards, Rich

you won't be able to run a spanned (common desktop) across two displays if you're connected using two separate video cards.
>>to free up the 6800 from working to hard
the card is designed to support up to 2 displays...you're not overworking the card. in fact, because you're using two separate cards, you've actually slowed down your video speed because the data now is branched thru multiple PCI bus connectors.

You have to use Windows own Extended Desktop mode for separate video cards.
