IS IT POSSIBLE TO CONNECT ONLY ONE DISPLAY WITH TWO CPUs?

I am not advertising here. I did a simple search of "share monitor between computers" at http://search.yahoo.com and found the following links that might be helpful.

No, but would like to have Dual Monitors.

Your computer will need to support this type of display. (Check for more than one VGA or DVI display port.)\n\nIf not, you can buy a dual or triple head graphics card to install into your machine. Installing a second graphics card disables the computer's on-board port and you connect up your monitors to its ports instead. This will give you two (or more) independently addressable displays. With windows you then select the display and tick "Extend my desktop to this display" in the settings and the additional display will come on and start working. (By default windows will only use one display until you tell it otherwise in the settings, then all is fine and windows will use all the displays from then on.)\n\nhttp://shopmatrox.com/\n\nI have a Matrox P650 Dual-Head card with two flat panel screens and this works very well. (There are cheaper options out there though.)\n\nThere are also boxes and adaptors out there that can split your one display output into two, and this will function in "stretched" mode. (For example a laptop.) But make sure that your computer's chip-set is supported. The manufacturer of the display splitter box should be able to tell you what it is compatible with.\n\nThis is different from independent displays in that it is slightly less flexible. As far as windows is concerned, you have one big monitor and some applications might not work quite right in stretched mode because they are unaware of the two displays.\nThere are drivers/software to work around this to a certain extent. (Mostly to re-position windows to the middle of one of the displays and not the middle, straddling the two displays, and to reposition windows when maximised to the display they are in and not across both screens.)\n\nIf your budget (and hardware) allows, go for independent displays rather than stretched mode only setup.

no. one is for amd processors and one is for Intel processors. different technology

Hi Z. I'm not familiar with your "parallel" term (or "integrate", for that matter!).\nI guess u mean you're NETWORKING the 2 PCs ?\n\nIf so, yes, I think you do need drivers, cards, etc in each one, so each PC can stand on its own 2 feet.\n\nShame about the lost drivers ... I have no idea, except to look on the net (maybe a Packard-Bell site?) where just about EVERYTHING seems "available", if only you can find it !

It's possible to do a dual-display setup with your computer but there are some things you should know.\n\n* AGP cards are exclusive so it definitely won't share with your on-board video.\n* Some systems are designed to disable on-board video when another video card is inserted (PCI or AGP).  It's hard to tell if your system will do that.\n\nNo problem though, you just need to buy a video card with two video outputs.  I'm familiar with nvidia cards and I know for certain that dual-display is supported in the software so any nvidia card would work as long as two VGA outputs are present on the card.  If you plan to connect to one CRT and one LCD with DVI connector, you can use this card then (see picture):\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814121184\n\nIf you are doing two CRTs, however, you'll need something like this where they include a DVI-to-VGA adaptor:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814168002\n\nYou can also look for dual-VGA video cards like this one but I'm not familiar with ATI products and how easy it is to set it up:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814161150

You can use what is called a KVM switch.  It allows you to use one keyboard, one mouse and one monitor with 2 PCs.\n\niogear makes some great products.

thethief is kind of right, but youll get sucky performance. Buy a modern agp or pci-express video card and it should have a dvi and vga input, with a dvi > vga adapter allowing more than one monitor plugged into the video card.

if ur computer has built in ethernet card, then u can connect them both by using crossover cable... its the cheapest way i know.

First, probably.  Second, it's not like you can take the two 1.87GHz cores and add them up to be 3.74GHz, that's fuzzy math and processors do not work like that.  You have two processors, running at 1.87GHz.  Unless the application is multithreaded then it will be running on one of the two cores only.  Windows XP is capable of doing this, if it needs to.  Windows will assign a processes to the different cores.  One core will be dedicated to the heaviest process running and one core will be relegated to running the background tasks.  Only if an application is multithreaded will it be able to run on both cores.  There are not many applications that are, save for Windows itself.  These applications will not be seen until the end of this year or even as late as the middle of next year.  In the end I think it is up to the task of running whatever program it is.

Does it have dual monitor capacity? Right click on your desktop and select properties select the display tab and if you see monitors 1 and 2 available then you can, if you don't then you can't. If you can then just plug 2 screens into the card and use the display settings either on windows or with the software that came with it which should also have a help file to shoe you how to do it.

you cannot run 400MHz and 533MHz in the same pc\n\nbut if you link 2 PCs together you will be able to.

if your video adapter is having two output modes you can connect two monitors to your pc and can work simultaniously on both of the monitors.

Any monitor with a DVI or VGA connector will work.

It has two processors on one wafer.  You cannot just remove one processor

If you have experience in installing/reinstalling video drivers in safe mode, do so.\n\nAlternatively, if you do not like reinstalling video drivers, and you or one of your neighbors have a different monitor, try to plug it in, boot normally and if it works OK with resolution you have now, you can change resolution to settings acceptable for your 1st monitor.
