I originally posted some questions regarding the independent use of two 
monitors on the same computer. The idea behind this is:
- to run a data acquisition program under Windows 3.1 using the colour VGA
  monitor.
- to run a separate program (to be written in Turbo C++, Turbo Pacsal 6.0, or
  Turbo Pascal for Windows) to display a small moving object on a different
  monitor, but connected to the same computer.
- a person watching the second monitor, following the object with their eyes,
  has their pupil positions recorded by some A/D board, controlled by the
  acquisition software seen on this first monitor.
- it would be nice if the second monitor was also VGA, to avoid ghosting from
  the moving object.


I have further questions...
- Is there a particular type/make of video card which will permit using two
  (VGA) monitors independently?
- Are there any other companies which sell these sorts of products?
- What are their postal or phone, fax contact details so I can get in touch 
  with them?
- Has anyone out there done this sort of thing before?


I will post solutions once I have gathered sufficient information.

Thanks,
Mike Miles.
