[Avid-L2] Re: Additional video card

That's what I do on the Machine I use at the moment : MacPro with a second gfx card (same as first) which drives a 42" LCD monitor plugged with a DVi-HDMi adapter. The third screen (Full Screen Display) is not aligned with the others so that my mouse doesn't wander there too often. On each reboot, the window setup stays the same with no problem.

Back to the subject of your question and since your setup isn't Mac anyway, maybe this gizmo might do the trick:

OWC ships to Europe, I bought quite a few things from them.

Usually if one of the monitors is unplugged they system gets confused but for the most part I'm told the systems are very stable as far as monitor configuration. Just wanted to share this to the thread.
