How to use 3 monitors with two video cards in Vista?

Hello there, i have a 6200(PCI) and an 8800gt (PCIE) in my pc. I was wondering how i could have 3 independant screens in Vista? It's like the Nvidia Control Panel's dualview feature, but with 3. Anyone have the know-how?

How to use 3 monitors with two video cards in Vista?
mmm, i have 4 monitors on my windows xp system but i havent tried to use vista on this machine yet. but all i did to get it to work was to install the 2 graphics cards [making sure the drivers are installed], connect the monitors to the outputs on the graphics cards and then enable them within the "display properties -%26gt; Settings" tab.





this same window can be found within "control panel -%26gt; personalization -%26gt; Display Settings"


just select the monitor press the "extend the desktop onto this monitor" and the move it into place.





let me know if this works as i plan on changing to vista soon and i need to know if my screens will work!
