At my school I am trying to figure out how to setup 2 computers and 3 monitors all on an easy system.
I have a big black CPU with XP, and a little gray CPU with 2000. I have a little extra video card that can go in either. (We have had trouble setting it up on the XP one, but we have gotten it working on the little one. But, we know it could work on the big one if we found someone smart...)
Also, these are disconnected from the internet.
So, if I make the XP computer the server, do I have to use the extra video card on that computer, or can I use it with the little 2000. (Can I use it at all?)
If they are disconnected from the internet, do I just run ethernet between them? Any other special hoopla associated with that?
The idea is to run both computers and by the sound side, and have a monitor by the light board so they can watch the sound cues, or we can hook that up to a projector instead...
