Does anyone know if it is possible to run two monitors at the same time
using an A8N-VM CSM, one using the built in IGP and the second using a
PCI-E video card? Do I need to change any settings in BIOS or Windows
XP to do this?
The "Primary Graphics Adapter" setting in the BIOS, seems to
imply that the IGP and a PCI Express video device can function
at the same time. It is "early adapter" time for 6100/6150
motherboards, so someone is going to have to test it for you.
Another poster has been working on getting "dual view" to work
with his board (using VGA and TV output at the same time).
He is still working on it...
There is a suggestion here:
http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?sitesize=yes&i=2537&p=2
"On the positive side, GeForce 6100 does NOT automatically disable
on-board graphics when a PCIe Graphics Card is inserted. That
means the integrated graphics plus graphics card can drive up to
4 monitors if the motherboard supports both integrated video
outputs. This is also a feature on the ATI Radeon Xpress200
chipset."
The proof will be in the testing
