currently got 28" and 22" monitors and a 50 lcd tv

i use the 28" as the main and the 22" as a secondary screen with xfire, cpuz etc all on there :P like a big fat spec screen ^_^

problem is i use a s video wire to watch videos from my 4870 on my lcd

but i always have to turn off my 22" screen to enable the secondary display as tv

was wondering if i buy a cheap £30 normal PCI card to run the secondary display? will this work?

and then i can always run s video to tv

i use a P5Q board and dont want crossfire as im going to 4870x2 soon :)
 
heres the setup :P

quick tip mate

i couldn't find any pci (non-e) video cards that had vista drivers, looked at the 7250 (i think?..) from ati, and it only has xp drivers

couldn't see any vista drivers for the nvidia pci cards either (there might be some)
