[Logic] Running 2 monitors

Thu, 5 Sep 2002 14:10:23 -0700

Richard, Im running Windows ME and a fellow wrote me saying he did the
excate same thing with ME as you did with Windows 98  and it worked fine. He
mentioned running any old video card also- Ok, i didnt realize it was that
easy. At least it sounds that way, getting it to work is another
thing.....Thanks for the info, i think im gonna pick up another card and
give it a try.

driver (which may be included with your windows system) that came with the
video card.  Once installed you go into display properties and let the
system know you have two monitors.  I don't recall exactly how I did it, but
I do remember it was very easy.  I probably went into the win98 help files
for direction.

users of Logic that use multiple monitors.  I think its a great way to
manage all of the programs we may run at one time.

computers thru a router to accomplish the task now. Lots of possibilities I
suppose.  I ran a quick search and see there are cards where you can run 20
monitors, Is all this done with software to control them I suppose? Any info
is appreciate either private or the group if you think others might be
interested....
