Hi, Hope you can help! I have a NVIDIA FX5200 dual output video card, I have no option for the second monitor, when i go display->setting, it only gives me the option for one monitor. i seem to remember that when i first set-up XP Pro, or it could have been when installing the drivers, i think it may have asked me if i wanted to use the second monitor option, for reasons at the time (didn't think i would need to use it?!) i'm sure i only let it set it up for one monitor, so now i have no option to use the second output (they are both monitor output d-type with 3 rows of pins, if that makes sense?)
Any ideas how i can get it to find the second output? and enable the options for dual mode.
Thanks

Try if changing the multi-monitor mode fixes the problem, this option is under advanced display properties > Nvidia tab > nView Display Settings.
If it's set to Single display, you would need to change it to Dualview.

maybe i stupid, but couldn't find anywhere to change to multi/dual mode, for people info: Nvidia Geforce FX5200 bios 4.32.20.75.00 'just thinking could it be the wrong bios, disabled dual outputs?' ForceWare version 81.95 TV Encoder Type: Intergrated (MV)
Going to check the bios, from orginal request, maybe this is the problem? Goddness where do i get bios info for nvidia cards?
