| 330830 | 2005-03-05 05:48:00 | I have Gforce GA-GF1280 graphic card. Would like to connect another monitor. Had before Matrox with dual outputs, but GF has S-video and another output signed "Comp out". Is it possible to actuate another monitor with this card and how? Any ideas? Thanks |

| 330832 | 2005-03-05 07:10:00 | Hi Gonzales! Thanks. OK, another, may be, silly idea. I have Matrox dual head card. But my new motherboard Aopen AK73 has only PCI cockets and old Matrox needs AGP. Is there a way to work around this? | taly (5956) | ||
| 330833 | 2005-03-05 07:32:00 | Nope afraid not Taly :( If the mobo has no AGP slot, there's no way you're going to make one. You would have to get another mobo with an AGP port. |

| 330834 | 2005-03-05 08:21:00 | My Flatmate has basically the same card, and using the NVIDIA drivers can use a TV as the second monitor, or clone the displays. Install the latest NVIDIA drivers, plug a cable in and fudge around with it. You can't hurt anyone. |
