Yep, I'm pretty sure....when i tried to install it said something about an
invalid O/S (there were no 98 drivers on the CD or the website). Although i
have made a move from 98se on both machines to 2000 on one and XP on the
other and I am pretty happy with the results to be honest. Things are more
reliable and the performance cost is hardly noticable.
All the best,

if anyone has experience with a dual how well does it work)

focus the action around the centre of the display, which on 2 monitors means
right where the join is. :(
Three monitors would be much better as you'd have the centre monitor as the
main focus and peripheral vision on the side monitors. From the Matrox
screenshots, triple-head gaming looks awesome (now if they'd only release a
card that could run those games at a reasonable frame rate).

Indeed, that I've experienced too. You immediately want to shift your
eyes around a bit; the focus is there where the monitor sidewall is.

I have a Parhelia and tested it, but indeed at some point got back to
my Geforce3, which was especially much faster in windowed OpenGL
(approx. 10x). May have been fixed in newer drivers by now though.
