Dual LCD Display Help!!

[PsYcHo.KiLLa]

I have a SyncMaster 740N and a SyncMaster 152N.

I have dual 7800 GT's and for some reason when I plug both of my LCD's into a video card, only one of them works. They both display the start-up process, until it reaches the login screen of Windows. Then On goes blank and the other one stays the same.

Help!

How do I make these LCD's work?

Nvm, It's not working.

I need to install the driver for the second display. Otherwise I think it will work.

No, SLI doesn't support dual monitors.

So if I disable SLI, then it should work, right?

yes. Its one of the many downsides of SLI, but thankfully the latest nvidia drivers allow for SLI to be enabled/disabled within windows, so you can turn it on for gaming.

Dual monitors won't do you much for BF2 though

It works! I have it so the windows open in the right LCD, and I can go between the two. Games play in one,, while the other is on desktop. (Thanks for the help!)
