Shop window LCD display

lazernuts · 2010-05-25 15:34:43

Hi, I need to set up a shop window display(LCD tv) running from a PC to display a website. The computer it will run from will be someone's desktop, so I need separate outputs and cant have an extended desktop for obvious reasons. Do i need to get a new dual video adapter for the pc or is there an easier way? Thanks

There are 2 options that I know of:

A) Buy a graphics card for your PC with 2 outputs. Almost all have this nowadays.

You can get a cable splitter. This means the same image will be displayed on both at all times but it doesn't seem like that's much of a downside and it's very cheap.
