Multiple Display Support under Windows
Microsoft's Window environment does not allow multiple, unrelated displays (desktops). Any display screen attached to a single computer is part of a single desktop, and the rules of the desktop apply to the entire display array. This means that desktop toolbars, icons, and all properties (appearance, background, screensaver) are common to all screens, and follow all applicable Windows protocols.
For example, if two screens are stacked vertically, the toolbar strip must be at the sides, at the top of the top screen, or at the bottom of the bottom screen. It can not reside at the top of the bottom screen, for example.
Windows
2000 and Windows XP
Windows 2000
provides support for multiple displays within the operating system. Under
Windows 2000, an extended desktop can consist of different types of display
adapters and displays with different resolution and color depth.
Note that in the some cases (e.g. GarnetPMC and TopazPMC), limitations in the Windows driver may prevent mixing graphics controllers on one system. In this situation, if you have a "console" display, it must be disabled before installing the Rastergraf board. Please contact Rastergraf for if you have any questions.
