Using two monitors...

Hey all,

I have just recently brought a brand new 2407 24" monitor...

I currently have a 19" HP monitor.

My main question is - I play Microsoft Flight Simulator quite often - if I wanted to use the 24" for playing Flight Simulator, but wanted to use the 19" to surf the net (For the boring parts

), is it just a case of connecting both monitors to the graphics card (Using both DVI connections)?

Thanks,
Marky

Yep, that's it

You'll need to go in to Display Settings to set the monitor up properly in Windows though.

Make sure you run Flight Simulator in windowed mode too! How does Flight Sim run on your 3870x2???

Very well indeed

It's just I've always wanted to be able to surf the net or even listen to some music whilst keeping a close eye on my flight - so what better use can my spare monitor come to

Thanks for the help buddy!
