[AG-TECH] Multi Display Cards Recommendation

[Peter DeSantis]

We used XP sp2, Asus mainboards, 3.0ghz intel cpu etc etc.

Im sure i sure 1 or 2 posts from someone else about this issue and that there possibly was a fix, but we never tested it out.
I think the post stated links to 2 upgraded versions of vic that they stated fixed the problem, but it wasnt clear that they were in fact running in independentat screen mode to see the problem.

As for the resolution matrox claim there is a tool on thier wesbite that allows you to add this custom resoltuion, but i aint testededd it.
For what it is worth my opinion is that if you aint gonna use one of the vic variations that allow greater than 388x252 pixel capture you should not look to use anyhting higher than 1280x1024.
