Hi Kimberly,

I use an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro myself, with two monitors, and that works fine.
Make sure one of your monitors has a digital input, though, because the 9800
Pro has one analogue and one digital outlet. As far as I know, you can't use
two video cards together with FS9 (but anyone feel free to correct me!).

If you're not sure if it will all work, get to a decent computer store, tell
them which model PC and monitors you have, and they should be able to help.

Good luck,

Marc

P.S. Sounds like a great surprise for your husband!

Hi I'm hoping someone can answer a question for me. I'm trying to
install a second monitor (as a surprise for my husband for use with
Flight Sim). I bought the monitor, but I haven't bought a video card
yet.

I have an old (old as in bought the computer in 1997) computer that
would have a card--can I use that or am I better off just going out
and buying a new card?
The computer it will be used on is a new Dell. Is there a way to know
which kind of card to buy?

Thanks for any info!
