Can I attach a second monitor to the unused VGA port?

My video card have both a DVI and a VGA port. My monitor's connected through DVI. Can I add a second monitor to the unused VGA port and will Windows XP recognise it as a second monitor?


Answer:

Yes you can and yes it will.
Absolutely, xp will automatically sanction the 2nd monitor and set it up. I have a monitor on my DVI port and a projector on my VGA, it works approaching a charm. Once you installed the monitor and turn the PC, go to the display properties, move about to settings and will see the 2 monitors there and you can amendment settings for ea of the monitors.

Enjoy !
