- As I understand things, _normally_ you can't get two colour video cards
- working in the same machine. One colour (ie. SVGA) and one mono (ie. Herc)
- should work though. That's what I use at work, both in graphics mode.
- (I work with Intergraphs 'MicroStation' CAD software.)
- BUT! Some high-end graphics cards (I forget the actual brands at the moment)
- contain two SVGA-type adapters on one card, and can use both at once.
-
- I'm not sure if there are any other combinations that would work.
- Hope that helps.
