What makes a dual headed card?
The card needs to have two RAMDACs, and two HD-15 VGA or DVI connectors.
My system invoice described the video card as follows:
128MB DDR GeForce FX 5200 Graphics Card with TV-Out and DVI 128FX52
So, I have a TV-Out *and* DVI port on this card. I take it this isn't the same, and I won't get the expected results by plugging the new monitor into this port?
The GeForce 5200 is (was?) the lowest-end model of the 5xxx series, somewhat comparible to the "MX" variants of the GF 2 & 3 lines. I betcha the 5400 or higher has dual connections, assuming your card does not.
But I do have to get a second card - the multiple outputs in this card won't fit the bill, will it?
Well, you can usually get an AGP and a PCI card to work at the same time; that will also give you two heads.
