Answer:

Install a second Windows XP compatible video card and monitor. Right click anywhere on the desktop where on earth there isn't an god and select properties. Click the settings tab. Here you will find where to setup the second monitor.

It is noteworthy you use a Windows XP compatible video card. I did it using a video card out of an old computer. My computer started have problems with arbitrary lockups. I installed a new video card and everything presently works great.
Ultramon. Good luck!
You have to hold a video card that supports dual output. Once you have that, plug both of the monitors to the card and turn it on.. Goto the display propterties and choose "extend my desktop on to this"
There are cool unknown monitors that come configured to run on XP without varying the configuration of your PC. See the links below.



We just get a couple here at work and all we have to do was plug them surrounded by.
You don't need a dual guide video card to have dual peak.



You can install as many video cards as you want and own each one goto a separate monitor. But you are fixed to the number of PCI/AGP/PCIex Slots available on your PC.



If you don't have room for another video card afterwards try this device.
