I have an old FX 5200 in an office machine. It has two heads but will not support multi-monitors (only one can be used at a time). I can use the TV out and a head but the signal from the TV out looks awful. I need a card that can send a signal through two heads at one time.

Will this card support multi-monitors?:

If not, do you know of a card that does?

Thanks,

Do you have an available PCI-e slot or do you need an AGP card?

Are you using the driver from the OEM or have your tried using Nvidia's official driver from their site. If I'm not mistaken, the multi-monitor thing is a driver controll, not video card.

I'm wondering what inputs are on the back of your card. I'm almost positive I've run 2 monitors with my Ti-4200, so the FX 5200 should be able to support 2 monitors as well.
