Hi all,
I would like to use a second PC to display the plane's instruments.
Just to be clear, I was searching something like falcon-glass ( for Falcon AF ), with some already built instruments.
Can you point me to the easy solution to achieve this ?

I have seen something on schiratti site, but I'm not sure is the easy way.

Pierluigi

Does your present video card supprort 2 monitors?
If not you will have to (a) change your video card, (b)buy a second video card..
If your pc has so extra pci slots in it. put in a Matrox Melleium should be less than $20 used...
then go to windows control panel and tell widows to use the second display.

On the other hand if your running a Mac Pro you can run up to 8 monitors
without anything additional . I don't know about FS but X-planeon a PC in
rendering options just check the box for 2 monitors. Rick Davis did that and
it works because I tried it too. You can run one for panel view only and one
for scenery only or we use it to bring into use the moving map and the
X-plane on the second one

Regards

Bill

Nonsense. Even on a Mac you would need four dual head or 8 single headed
cards. Just the same as a PC.

.I asked Sergio do you know who he is ?I have 2 8800GS Mac and 16gigs of
ram he told me I could run upto eight . I don't know what I am talking about
but I am sure he does . I do suspect he is not talking about X-P lane
probably just business stuff grant you that. As you know X-Plane on the
Rendering tab you can run 2 monitors easily just by setting the switch.I was
able to run
2-24inch LCD's at 1680x1050 on both monitors at the same time.One for normal
flying and the second one for the map without issue. (-:
