Multiple Display Support: Windows
98, Windows
Me
Windows
98 and Windows
Me support the simultaneous use of more than one
display device. You simply install a separate PCI card for each additional display you
intend to use. With multiple displays, you can extend your desktop, run different
programs on separate displays, even play some newer games with multiple views.
Each display can have a different resolution and color depth!
Note that, under Windows
98 and Windows
Me, one graphics card is automatically
designated by the system as the
primary
card. Each additional graphics card is
designated by the system as a
secondary
card. Certain 3D and multimedia features are
only available on the
primary
graphics card. The
primary
card is the one that
displays the POST (Power On Self Test) information during startup. If you are
installing a PCI graphics card, you need to consider the following:
• If you install both a PCI and an AGP graphics card in the same system, your
motherboard BIOS may assign the RADEON™ AGP card as the
secondary
card.
If this happens, some manufacturers offer an upgraded BIOS that allows an AGP
card to be reassigned as the
primary
card. Contact your system vendor for further
details.
