err... where exactly do you plan on finding an 8mb card? A garage sale? Seriously go spend $30-$40 on a new, entry level graphics card and you'll be fine.

It's your money, do whatever you want... 8mb is worthless though.

adding an additional card WILL NOT show the same thing on 2 monitors - as you have already been told.

The only way to do what you want to do without using a splitter cable is to get a card that has TWO monitor outputs on a SINGLE card, that supports Hydravision (ATI), or another manufacturer equivalent.

Again, adding a second card WILL NOT show the same thing on multiple monitors. It will ONLY expand your desktop to cover multiple monitors.
