First you need a video graphics card that can support multiple monitors.

Here's how I did it:
I have a Matrox AGP slot video card that supports 2 monitors. I then bough a PCI Matrox card that supports 2 monitors. Generally - I've found that you should have the same brand of video cards. I have 4-monitor capability. It's generally cheaper to have 2 video cards than a single card that has 3 or 4 outputs, as they run a premium. Even if you have a single AGP video card, you can get something for under $100 at BestBuy or CompUSA that is a PCI slot dual output monitor. When setting up the sim, I go out of "full screen mode", go to each window and define the view (for example, rotating left or right to get side views), then go back to full-screen mode. There are some on line articles that describe it - I had to find them through search engines. Hope that helps. Gary |
