Have just bought a new monitor.
The PC has a Radeon graphics card (third party, fitted myself) and so has two VGA slots - one provided by the card and the other presumably from the built-in OEM card on the motherboard.
New monitor works fine replacing the old one.
I wondered if I could plug the old one into the motherboard VGA output and have both. I must just be imagining this, because I had thought that I had done that before on a previous PC.
With this one only the new one is ever detected. The system is aware of another "VGA output" but is unable to send anything to it.
Does this need a special graphics card to replace the one I have now?
