I could run Dual monitors (displaying different desktops) with win98 but can't do it with win2000. Have tried different drivers and all. My card is a Rage Pro LT. Is there any trick to doing it or is Win2000 just more picky?

Make sure your secondary display adapter, has VGA-disabled selected. (This is done with either a jumper or a small dip switch located on the secondary display adapter. If you cannot locate a jumper or switch, then consult the manufacturer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for more information.)
Not all vid cards allow this, and Win 98 did NOT require this.
