Lenovo Thinkcentre M57 6305 - Dual Heads & Extended Desktop

Hello Gurus.

 

This time we have a M57 6305.  Running WinXP Pro.  Engineered a little different compared with my M52's.  This one has two PCI slots.

 

One is a PCI - Low-profile - LGA775 Socket...

 

The other is a  PCI Express x16 - Low-profile

 

The operative term in this case is "low profile".

 

Anyone out there had success with a low profile PCI dual monitor capable video card that will work with XP?

 

Please reply with your thoughts.

 

Thanks.

low profile is half height card.

if you only want dual video output, then you could try anyone of these half height pci-express graphics card options, other manufactuerers also produce these cards (or you could go with second hand used one from places like ebay).
