78123 2002-09-10 03:41:00 Would a "Pine TNT2 M64 PCI with 32MB SDRAM" card do the job of a second vga display driver. Spreading out paint shop pro, veiwing web pages on one while doing somthing else on the other at the same time.
In short two individual displays.

78124 2002-09-10 04:12:00 Sure it will - I actually run a TNT2 as my main video card, and a 4mb Creative as secondary - the small secondary card does really well - but the TNT2 isn't that great for primary (especially not games) but as secondary it won't be used much for intensive graphics like modern games, so it'll be fine.

Anytihng will do, depending on your resolution and quality requirments, I have run a 4 Meg card fine on 32 Bit 1024x768!
