You need to add another video output to your computer, either by adding a second video card, or by replacing the old card with an ordinary dual-output card.

Read the information on this site, and in this forum, and you should find all the answers you need.

the card i have is very expensive and top-spec
so replacing not a option
is there some sort of adapter i can get to do this job?

No, but you could add a cheap PCI card to drive the second monitor. I'm running both of my monitors off one Matrox G450 PCI card with no problems.

Actually, it depends: If you want both monitors to display the exact same thing, then all you need is a good video signal splitter box (like they use for monitor displays in stores). If you want to have your desktop go across both monitors, then you need to add another video output to your computer.
