I just bought a new monitor and I am trying to extend my desktop across them both. I currently have an ATI 9700 AGP gfx card and tried installing a second card (an old Voodoo3 PCI) and running each monitor on its own card. I am having trouble with that, so now I am just considering buying a new card (Leadtek WinFast A7600GT probably) in hopes that it will solve my problems.
I just want to make sure I can run the dual monitors off that new card if I do purchase it.
Or if anybody has any recommendations on making the cards that I have now work? Computer recognizes them both, sets the AGP ATI card as primary and works on one monitor. But whenever I go to settings in my display controls and try to enable the 2nd monitor on the voodoo3, my computer freezes and crashes.

The 7600GT will have dual monitor support.
My guess is that the old drivers for the Vodoo 3 are causing the crash.
I didn't know anyone still had one of the Vodoo 3's. :)

You should be able to do this with all the cables that came with your projector. The projector has a VGA in and a VGA out. plug your LCD monitor into the VGA out and you shuold not experience any signal loss. And your going to need a lot more PC to do what you want.

YES and it is wonderful!!!, the only problem is that you have to buy an adapter (DVI to VGA) for a monitor if it only has VGA.
