I have a ATI Radeon 9000 which supports dual display.

I have LCD's that both support DVI.
But the graphic card only has one DVI output.

What kind of cable do I need to connect to both monitors?

Thanks in advance.
 
You should have gotten an analog-to-DVI adapter with your card to hook-up that second port. If you didn't, go buy one at a computer store.
 
The video card itself has only ONE port which is DVI.
There isn't any secondary output port or anything.
 
how does the card support dual display without having two display outputs? or rather: how do you know that the card supports dual display without the card having dual outputs? maybe you could buy a dvi splitter and run both monitors from the one output.
 
That's the damnest thing.
The box clearly says it supports dual display.
The manual says it supports dual display.
Installation disc has Hydravision which is for maximizing dual display mode.
When I also goto dispaly settings, I get two display options:
1. Plug and Play Monitor on AIW RADEON 900
2. (Default Monitor) on AIW RADEON 9000 -Secondary

And yet I don't see how I can go about doing it since there's only one DVI output.

Here's link to the card (it has pic of the card and its outputs)
