In general, depending on your graphics model, if you have an AMD board you can run VC across two displays via their Eyefinity. With Nvidia you cannot. You can "extend" across two displays but that is a little different. You would have to buy a 2nd Nvidia card for a wraparound VC.Clutch

With FSX and nvidia cards, just like you can have a single or multiple VC views on a single monitor,you can have a single or multiple VC views on a second monitor running off the same card.The view of each VC can be set independent of the others.You can then link them up so they pan at the same time.I'm running three monitors, each with a VC, off two 8800GTs.Two off the first card, one off the second.gb.
