hi there!

I just installed a dual monitor system on win2k with a gloria II AGP and a Gladiac511PCI which works fine except I don't get any openGL acceleration on the second monitor with the Nvidia 6.31 drivers. is there a solution for this with other drivers or some tweak utility?
any help apreciated!

I forgot: I tried the multimonitor option in the Nvidia preferences which slowed down openGL INCEDIBLY!

The Radeon VE's new beta drivers are optimized for OpenGL and DirectX 8. They are much much faster than the first release drivers that came on the CD. I have a fireworks screensaver that requires OpenGL to run and with these drivers, it runs flat out, full screen across both monitors with great video and sound.

Unfortunate that both Anandtech.com and TomsHardware.com reviewed the Radeon VE with the first drivers. As it was, they beat the Matrox card hands down and matched the nVidea card in the higher resolutions. With these new drivers, they would surely win the contest.
