Graphics card double output for the motorway A58

Hi guys,.

Work just gave me a Lenovo A58 SFF and while I don't have the serial number, I don't know what follows-

Lenovo ThinkCentre A58
Small form factor
Intel CORE 2 QUAD Q8400
4 GB OF RAM
Hard drive 320 GB

The machine is used only for work (spreadsheet, processing and internet) and I would like to run two monitors (both with VGA, PCI and HDMI inputs), but Lenovo A58 LTS offers only one VGA output.

I did a quick search for graphics in this forum, but suggestions seem to be a little out of date as the machine is a bit long in the tooth now.

As I work for a small business, we do not have a 'IT Department', so it is left up to me to sort.

If you could please provide me with some options, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Chris.

(1) the onboard graphics on the A58 can support 2 monitors. The card is in fact the second connector for the integrated graphics card.

(2) limitation is that to do with graphics performance, you can not play on it. But Office apps will work fine. normal movies will work as well.

(3) it's a true second monitor, you can expand the view to make both monitors independently managed.

  • Graphics card double output

    I was wondering if there is a video card capable of dual monitor to my HP Pavilion Slimline s5713w desktop PC, Windows 7 64 bit? Also, it will require a bigger PSU, if this slim case will fit it? any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

    Any PCIe x 16' low - profile' or "low - profile ready" graphics card must fit into your computer. Almost all retail graphics cards require a minimum of 300 watt system power. Power on a HP Slimline computer are not your standard ATX used in most full desktop computers. Based on the physical size of your computer's power supply, AthenaPower.com should have a solution from 300 to 450 watt for your computer. Good luck.

  • Graphics card need help for the severe game for WoW - Lag

    Hi, here is my card:

    HP Pavilion, 8 GB of Ram, Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q8400 2.66 GHz (4 processors)

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    DirectX 11

    Card: Intel G45/G43 Express Chipset

    1695 MB

    1920 x 1080 (32 bit) (60 Hz)

    Please let me know which card should I get - I would have thought a 1.6 GB card would be sufficient... but apparently not.

    Yes, the video card is recommended for WoW (and '' recommended '' is higher than the minimum) according to the site of WoW is a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT.  It is quite an old card!  The map that I mentioned, the 250 GTX, is more powerful than the 8800 GT according to this comparison site.  So the GTX 250 or greater will be enough for you if WoW is the most intensive game you play.  If you play more intensive games, follow my previous post and buy the best you can afford in the settings described in this post.

  • Re: Satellite U400 - is a graphics card required to play the DVD?

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite U400, who shared with the CPU graphics, not a dedicated graphics card. The laptop will play DVD ok without interruption or gel? I guess passes with DVD playback dedicated graphics card? I realize that dedicated graphics cards are good for games and needed to run some demanding games but are shared graphics more than able to play DVD movies?

    Look forward to your reply,

    Thank you.

    Hi MARTIN & SONS,

    Graphics card is required to start properly, but for this laptop and play DVD it makes no difference if you have a chip that is integrated or not. That's only important if you play 3D games because they need a lot of performance.

    Anyway, you can watch DVDs ;)

  • What does that mean? -This problem occurred because your graphics card does not support the required version of DirectX. This version of Windows requires a DirectX 9.0 compatible video card or newer.

    I tried viewing a presentation power point and got to page 2 and my computer crashed.  Thought on... what he did previously trying to display a PPP file, but I thought that it was not my computer to the actual file.  now I have my doubts and also this time an error message came that said... This problem occurred because your graphics card does not support the required version of DirectX. This version of Windows requires a DirectX 9.0 compatible video card or newer.  can someone tell me what I should do next?

    You left out which version of DirectX has been shown.

    As far as I know, your Intel 945GM should support DirectX 9 and because you have XP sp3, you must have at least DirectX 9 installed.

    I met the following, but it shouldn't apply to Powerpoint:

    Some such as the Intel 945 GM Intel video cards have a design limitation which may cause problems when you try to run the Source Engine games. 3D graphics kernel does not support transformation of material, light and the vertex shader to similar technologies, which is an important part of the pipeline of 3D acceleration. Instead, this functionality is emulated in software that can reduce the compatibility and performance with 3D games.

    I don't have a solution for you (assuming that DXDIAG, in fact, reports to have DirectX 9 or higher).  You can see if you install a new driver support, but if it were me, I would be first contact Acer technical support or ask your question in another forum as one of the following conditions:

    Intel graphics Forum: http://communities.intel.com/community/tech/graphics
    Forum PowerPoint: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/powerpoint (select the corresponding forum for your version of Powerpoint).  Include the results of DxDiag, including the version of DirectX.  If there is something unusual about the image that causes the crash, include this info as well.

    Normally, for notebook/laptop computer, it is better to get the drivers of the mfr of computer rather than the manufacturer of the device.

    Acer drivers for your computer are here: http://support.acer.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=1&modelId=535 (you want the Intel VGA for XP driver)

    Intel has a newer driver: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Internet+Devices&ProductLine=Netbooks&ProductProduct=Mobile+Intel%C2%AE+945GM+Express+Chipset+Family

    Hi Lyle,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of the problem your graphics card does not support the Aero themes. If you experience a problem then you need to update the drivers.

    Drivers are updated occasionally. Windows can update automatically, or you can install the drivers updated yourself. It is important for you to have confidence in the updated drivers that you install. Windows warns you if it detects a suspicious or dangerous driver, you should not install.

    Try to update the drivers from the link provided below and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

  • How to change the audio output for the metronome

    Hello

    I would like to send the metronome (and speech signals) for monitors to the scene in the ear.

    I understand that I can do this in MainStage using different output for the above titles vs. the rest of the 'Concert '.

    I tried to follow the instructions of the Manual:

    Change the audio output for the sound of the metronome

    1. Choose the MainStage > Preferences > General.
    2. In the section of metronome on the general tab, choose another audio output on the shortcut menu to exit.

    PROBLEM

    1. on the general tab, only the outputs 1-2 are available/selectable (likely, these are also by default for all "Concert")

    2. Why is this process in the manual if it is not executable (without doing something to another additional Set up)?

    3. it's probably among the requirements of setting up more critical even easier for using MainStage with a live band, so why am I having to ask for help at all!

    Rant on (its been a long day)

    Grateful for any help to solve cela. I guess I can send the metronome (such as a click track) and speech signals on the same outputs, which are separated from the rest of the Concert... or should I change the outputs on the other tracks and keep the outputs 1-2 for the metronome marks / voice?

    Thanks in advance for all advice and my apologies for my frustration. JM

    To access the output audio, you need an audio interface with several outputs.

  • Which card to use for the backup of Win8

    Windows 8 requires a minimum of 32 GB card to use for the backup. I bought a PNY 32 GB (http://www3.pny.com/32GB-Pro-Elite-Series-Hi-Speed-SDHC-Class-10-UHS-1---35MBs-233X-P3122C442.aspx ), but it wouldn't work. Even though it says 32 GB it is actually a little less. If I buy a 32 GB SanDisk will, that I meet the same problem? Exactly what the size is a SanDisk 32 GB card? (http://www.sandisk.com/products/memory-cards/sd/standard-class4/?capacity=32GB)

    Thank you

    Ed P2

    any card 32 GB will be less than 32GB after it is formatted to be used in a computer. It is a standard for all types of storage.

    If you need 32 GB of actual useful storage space, you will have to get a 64 GB card.

  • Second graphics card to output HDTV + HDV Live Preview

    Hi guys,.

    I have a few questions about the hardware and first Pro CS5. I use Windows 7 x 64 with a Dual DVI nVidia GeForce 7950GT released two LCD DVI monitors. I want to install a second graphics card so I can watch the preview window main premiered on my HD LCD TV and would like to know what the best plan of attack. Also, I want to be able to preview my HDV capture on my HDTV as cash on the 2.5 "LCD on my Sony HVR is not respectful of the eye!

    I think either the 7950GT to sell and buy a 470GTX GeForce which has 2 dvi and 1 mini-hdmi, or keeping the 7950 and buy a cheapish 2nd graphics card to use just for HDTV. How do you guys think is the best option?

    It's the graphics card I think having ( http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=hs87bcOLPd9irXRk & templete = 2 ) one ASUS ENGTX470 / 2DI / 1280 MD5, my server can handle simply his power, but I'm pleased to power level, if this card will be output to 2 DVI monitors and also an HDTV with a mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter. Antec 1000w power supply is only about $225!

    Or, I can take the cheap option and get a NVIDIA Quadro FX 580 by Leadtek ( http://www.leadtek.com/eng/workstation_graphics/overview.asp?lineid=2 & pronameid = 491 & check = f ) which is a cheapy with 2 HDMI and 1 DVI. I guess there are other cards PCI - X graphics here to choose from which are probably fine, but it would be great to know what some of you use guys.


    There must be others out there who already have a configuration double monitor with a third TV LCD to preview?

    Anyhelp would be much appreciated!

    I just started using this new generation last night and I'll post in a week once that everything is settled, including overclocking settings. But to answer your question, my main reason to go with MXO2 for this third monitor output. Since I edit the material that will be always monitored by other people, I want to see on a computer screen. In addition, I mainly TV spots, so I need this third monitor. But I also like the Matrox because he will accept all kinds of formats files and inputs HDMI, component, SDI, S, and Yes, even composite! And finally, since I have the version with MAX, it allegedly offers accelerated outputs to the H.264 format, which is my main export file format. I have no problem giving another chance Marox now that the motorway was expanded to 64 channels. After all, look at the improvement that adobe has made with CS5. And Microsoft, for that matter. Thus, it is early yet, I just finish this build last weekend, so I'll go on my hardware/software CS5 upgrade when I have more experience with it.

    p.s. I especially like Matrox because I had an MXO2 map almost new - w/MAX with a PCI-e card AND laptop computer for $800! (Paid $4K for the Axio back in ' 06!)
