Xps 7100 2 Monitors
RE: Dell Purchase ID: 2002796395477 Service Tag: BGVWYQ1There is only one expansion slot in the mother board. I plugged in Radeon 7000 32MB DDR V/D/VO PCI for my 2nd monitor.While it was plugged in the graphics card that came with the system would not work but the other one did. As soon as I removed the other one, the original graphics card worked.Question: Will the expansion slot support a 2nd video/graphics card for my #2 monitor? If so, what specs should I look for?Background: both monitors are Samsung, SyncMaster 930BFor video purposes I am not a gamer or power user. So just a basic video card should do.
