Trick is to install drivers for primary card and let windows install for the rest(check supported GPU's@website).

Just use same brand cards and it's a no problem.
I got two ATI card (AIW X800XT and ATI FireMV)
I just install the catalyst driver and both card runs fine right from the gecko

This guy also wanted/wants the Aero interface with Vista. Those cards are 2D workstation I thought... right?

I was just using it as an illustration since they had images on their web site that might help some people in this thread understand a multi-monitor trading setup. But by no means am I endorsing the company.
