Dual Monitors? -solved

Post by Zenzizenzizenzic »

Is/are there any dual monitor solutions for the X1000. I would not be adverse to getting an additional graphics card if that would be needed.

Thank you,

Hey sorry to hijack this a little bit, but nice to see another Kiwi still hanging with the Miggy crowd,
only had my X1000 for about a week.

I've got the other monitor running, but I know have some questions:

SInce I no longer had room for the PCI sound card, is there another sound card solution I can use?

The pre-boot screen is distorted. Is there a way to get that to default back to the original card rather than the PCI? ( Iassume this may be a firmware issue, if so, where can I get the firmware update?)

When I tested a 3d mode by running Quake, it worked fine, but after exiting the machine crashed and the display on the main monitor was shifted halfway through the screen. Is there a way to prevent this?

Thank you,
