Need to find a good video card to standarize on in order to use the multiple monitors features of XP in office environments where XP is the norm. &nbsp;This would be where there is already one monitor and card and we want to add a second monitor and card. &nbsp;This would not be for gaming or art work. &nbsp;More for attorneys who want to look at one doc while they work on another.<br />
<br />
I found the MS list of aproved cards at <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307397" rel="ugc">http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307397</a>&nbsp;but it is a little old. &nbsp;Should I stick to that list anyway? &nbsp;<br />
<br />
What if anything in the specs of cards tells you that the card is multiple monitor capable?<br />
<br />
Also, can anyone recommend good XP multiple monitor capable card they like for general business useage?<br />
<br />
TIA!<br />

Video cards for use with multiple monitors

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.

Components

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

A monitor or a display is an electronic visual display for computers, usually comprised of the display device, circuitry, casing, and power supply. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size. They are connected to the computer via VGA, DVI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, LVDS or other proprietary connectors and signals.
