I just bought a GeForce 8400 video card to get in on all that VDPAU goodness. Unfortunately it refuses to talk to the VGA and DVI monitors at the same time so Twinview does not work.

I'm returning the card to Newegg for a refund. I feel that a modern Nvidia card that has VGA and DVI outputs and does not support Twinview is defective.

Of course, if someone can tell me how to get Twinview working on this card, I would really appreciate it. For now I'm going back to using Twinview with the GeForce 6150 chip that is on my motherboard. I just can't go back to using only one monitor. It makes me feel claustrophobic.
