Not "OT" at all, I would think...
Others will know more, but I seem to recall that
using two video cards under Win 98 requires them
to be compatible, on a short list of cards...
Easier, perhaps, is using a single dual-head AGP
card... BTW, it is WELL worth the trouble to set
up dual monitors for video editing - good layout
for easy use of some programs eats screen real
estate (and many other computer tasks are made
easier with the second screen). For Premiere
dual-monitor layouts, see:
