SURROUNDVIEW™ Installation and Setup User's Guide
5-1 Getting Started
SURROUNDVIEW™ provides the power and convenience of multi-adapter, multi-monitor
support for computers that use internal ATI integrated graphics processors (IGP). Using
SURROUNDVIEW, ATI's RADEON™ EXPRESS 200 in combination with an external ATI
PCI-E graphics card, can support up to three, independent monitors.
Multi-monitor capability increases productivity — read email on one screen, work on a
spreadsheet on another, and create a document on another. SURROUNDVIEW is also
ideal for the office environment: a brokerage can monitor trades, place orders, and sell —
each on a different display. When the home office computer is not being used for work, it
can be used to play the latest games, several of which can take advantage of
SURROUNDVIEW's multi-monitor feature. With Microsoft® Flight Simulator, cyber pilots
can move different views to separate monitors.
Getting SURROUNDVIEW up and running requires only two steps:
• Install an external ATI AGP graphics card —
• Enable SURROUNDVIEW in the BIOS —
