New video card is installed. I also plugged in the right-angle AGP adapter so now the video card sits above the PCI slots. Unfortunately, it sits literally right on the PCI slots. This may cause a problem in the future. I think that I may get another adapter that makes it sit just a little bit higher. The current adapter sits at a height of .95"; think I'll get one that is 1.5" just to ensure some airflow between the videocard and PCI slots.
Last night I had both screens running at the same time. Unfortunately, whatever is shown one the primary screen is also seen on the secondary screen. So this means that if I've got a video going and switch over to the GPS, the GPS is shown on both screens. Hopefully I can figure out a way to keep the video or VISU showing on the secondary screen regardless of what is being shown on the primary screen.
Today I learned that my AC adapter that I've been using to run my SP-716 LCD has stopped working. I get to power indicator on the AC adapter and no voltage out. So testing for today is on hold until I can get to RadioShack or WalMart and get a new adapter. I've got tons of adapters around here. Maybe I can find a 12V adapter somewhere without having to spend more money on a new adapter.
