Forums -> Multiple monitors -> W2K : G400 SH (AGP) + (S3-trio64v+ / ATI Mach64) ?!?!

Planning to return my new G400MAX as it never (?)
will support two independent screens in W2K. I use two IIyama monitors - the Visionmaster Pro 510 (21") and ditto Pro 410 (17")

I have in my possession two old PCI cards: S3 Trio64V+ and an ATI Mach64.

Can any of these be used in a multi-screen setup with a Matrox G400 SH/16MB. Maybe the PCI card must primary.

Or maybe one should wait for the upcoming G450 and hope it will solve the dilemma...

I guess this should work if the PCI is primary in the BIOS, there's a similar config in the database, see http://www.realtimesoft.com/multimon/details.asp?Config=500. But be aware that the S3 won't work as secondary with Win2000, and as far as I know the same goes for the ATI.
