ive got a sapphire 4870 512mb so will i have any issues running a 20'' monitor and a 24'' monitor together?

what software would you guys recomend?

I have a 20" and 24" running off a 4870X2 on Vista64 with no problems at all. I use Ultramon for the nice little tweaks it give ya.

If running Vista 64 and Aero, you may get the odd display driver has recovered type error.

It's the see through theme of Vista. Set your theme to basic.

ah didnt have it enabled,

so is it as simple as installing the software and plugging the second monitor into the other port on my gfx card?

I used to run different sized monitors in dual display, never gave me trouble
