Yes it does. Just be careful if you have dual graphics on your laptop. I had to erase the CATIA settings folder because it only detected the active Intel GPU on the first run.

If you're unable to find drivers for your video card the manufacturer may no longer offer support for that card. If support is no longer offered by the manufacturer, you can then use Windows drivers instead. Just right click on your video card under your system's components and select Update Driver.

It is possible to use two monitors and hopefully this will help you.

1. First you must consider the power usage of using two monitors. If you are not concerned about this, then you can move on.

2. Do you have room for two monitors; do you have a power strip or a free outlet to plug into near by?

3. Do you have the correct hardware?

What you need...and assuming you don't have a dual-capable graphics card installed...

You will need a few things before getting started: one, a free AGP (accelerated graphics port) or PCI (peripheral component interface slot) on the motherboard. The reason for this is that you need an open slot to plug in a graphics card that will support dual-monitor hookups.

There is another way also, by installing two PCI video cards or one PCI and one AGP , but with dual monitor cards , life can be much easier. Another issue is same picture problem. If using two PCI video cards, you may get the same screen on both. Many times, dual monitor cards have extra software, etc..to separate images so you can in fact, put one wallpaper up on your monitor and on the next, put a different one.

What about your onboard monitor port? When using graphics cards, typically the onboard graphics are disabled so this would do no good.

As it stands, a dual monitor card is the easiest route to take.

Many graphics cards require a higher power supply, typically 350W for a round about. You need to inquire as to what the card needs before buying the card.

What kind of graphics card? Matrox seems to have a good rating for multiple monitor allowance and would be my (personal) pick. There is also ATI Radeon or Geforce. "There are many types and opinions of what works though and I would encourage you to do a lot of searching, pricing and questioning before making a choice. "

Cost can start becoming an issue, depending on the graphics card, power supply, and cost of running two monitors, once again you have to ask, Is this what you really need? What benefit will it be to me?

Installation of the card will depend on the type you aquire and you should follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the card. There are some important things to remember with the installation of a graphics card. Yes I stated that installation will depend on the type but some basic rules still remain...

1. ESD (electro static discharge) the same effect as rubbing your feet on a carpet and shocking the cat. There is enough voltage to destroy a circuit and can render the pc useless. The typical user may not have a grounding strap to prevent this but one precaution you can take is to ground yourself to the metal chasis , (the metal pc housing) when working inside. Keep the computer up off of static inducing surfaces like rugs, beds etc...

2. Make sure power connections to the pc are unhooked, you don't want to take a risk of getting shocked or damaging the computer.

3. If you are not sure on what to do, contact support or someone who knows how to accomplish the task as you may cause more harm than good.

That said, and assuming your pc is up to specs, you may want to know what to do AFTER you get all your gear hooked up. There are many options and the basics are where you may want to start...

Windows XP has support for up to 10 monitors and will accommodate just fine.

4870 by far.

If its not really for gaming or entertainment, i wouldn't even spend the money on a graphics card. I would go with a low budget integrated graphics chip. But if you are only given the option of getting a graphics card, I would just go with the lest expensive one because a discrete graphics card is already going to be more than you need.

If you are running Windows and have DirectX installed, press Windows logo key+R, type "dxdiag" (no quotes!) into the text box and click "Run" or something similar. That will give you information about the DirectX software and some related hardware such as graphics card and sound card.

You will still be able to use the on-board VGA but your new graphics card (depending on which one) will be better so you can use the ports on the graphics cards instead.

An accurate research completed on many different websites of online stores reveals a 1GB ATI Radeon HD 4870 video card has a price range between $220 and $420.

may depend cause alot of Graphics card makers r bring something new all the time and i call ATI may be 1 of the best for Computers which is not bad at all

MSDN says for the video requirements.

800 X 600, 256 colors Recommended: 1024 X 768, High Color 16-bit But generally speaking if you can run windows fine then you should no problem running visual studio c. If you are creating a very graphic intensive program then you could run into some problems when you compile but to just run the IDE you are fine.

It allows you to remove them, that is the cost to summon it. If it needed something else to remove the cards, that would be a Trigger effect that would say 'if' or 'when' that happens. Compare to cards like Gorz or Phantom Dragon, who summon themselves 'when' something happens.

Well actually it depends. If you plan on making graphics with java, then yes. Otherwise no. Hoping this comes to use.

Nvidia is a leading company in computer graphics card manufacturer. This company and more informatoin about it can be found on it's website, here:

is a separate processor used to handle all graphical information in a computer. Its separate from the CPU thus decrease its load or work

Yes u can have them i am running few of those games u just need good Ram to run them :-)

If you have a graphics card that supports HDMI you can of course connect the PS3 to that card. Will it work at all? most likely not. why not

You need a video card(s) designed for multiple monitors. NVIDIA and ATI both have video cards specifically designed for multiple monitor set-ups (i.e. financial trading). The NVIDIA Quadro NVS line and the ATI Fire GL line are the ones to look at. The NVIDIA Quadro NVS 440 can handle up to 4 monitors, so you would need two video cards for 6 monitors. It's not a good idea to try these cards with Vista yet...stick with XP until the drivers are more mature. I have a NVS 440 with Vista and it is unstable. I have a NVS 280with XP in a different computer and it works great. Personaly I have never tried to connect 6 monitors to a computer. I have done a little research in the area of multiple monitors and this was what i found first try thru flight sim's pilot shop.below is a way to get there but, I think it would be wise to do a deeper search for what you want.I just gave up for the moment because after I saw the price for some thing like what you are asking about well,hem caugh caugh well you will see. hint: $$$ if you go here to ---> http://www.fspilotshop.com and in the search engine type Matrox Triplehead2go then click search. this will show you a couple options which 1 of them is the matrox. just click on it and it will give you a better idea of what you should be looking for. I hope I have helped you out even if it was just a better idea of how to look for what you want, and as an avide flight sim pilot I love to here some one else thinking of doing the same thing as I my self. even if it is for different reasons. Good Luck on your search my friend and oh yeah try to repost here with your final out come.

It runs it fine no problems here

Yes,But you need Cyder And spiderman web of shadows(rip with no installation).

NO.for a ps2 emulater you need at least 2gb ram, and a Pentium 4.

you must buy a new videocard support DX9,you don't have other choices.you can't let Ti200 support PS2.0 throught upgrade software.
