I have an ATI x850xt, and I would like to connect 2 CRT monitors to it, but I don't know if it's possible....

here is the back of my card :



the vga port is already taken, but i don't use the DVI one. So is it possible to connect my second CRT monitor on the DVI port with somekind of adaptor ? Is it going to work or is my card working with only one monitor ?

thanks

There are adapters. There might of been one with your card but you can pick them up on the internet too.
