Is it possible to do the twin view with two different videocard?
For example, i have inno 3d geforce2 MX agp and one old pci videocard.
Will i be able to use two monitors installing both video card?
Please comment.

I don't think that would work. I believe that you have to have a video card that supports dual monitors.
i'm pretty sure u can do it, cuz i did it with two different video cards in win 98

So you can do two jobs at same time?(ie. one monitor displays photoshop and the other displays illustrator)
And just use the mouse to move between two monitors?
yeah u can span the desktop and have multiple things open
and the mouse will just move from monitor to monitor

you have to have an operating system that will support it, such as win98 or win2kpro, and youre mother board must support it, most new mobos do (my 1.5 year old compaq presario didnt, cheap bastards). with multiple displays you can have your main desktop with an extended desktop which you move stuff on to. its also a good idea to have a good processor and a decent power supply since you will be using more resources. i remeber back in the 486 days, my teacher hooked up 3 monitors to play doom with a front view, and both side views and it slowed the game so much it wasnt fun to play. that was back then, but i still think it would tax the processor considerably.
anyone know of any mobos that have more than one agp port, i would like to do the same thing to my computer, but i want to use only agp if possible.
yeah but i would rather stick to my geforce mx with twinview
or just get a g400 with dual heads
