Hello,
As you can see in my configuration (see below) I run 2 video cards and 3
monitors on my PC.
On the GF4 TI4600 I have 2 monitors attached; On my GF FX5200 PCI I have 1
monitor attached. And all this works very well.
My Question : when I boot my PC I "see" the BIOS information on the 2
monitors attached to the GF4 TI4600 ....BUT on the monitor attached to the
FX5200 I have a BIG yellow square; afterwards I see the Windows loading
window ....again only on the 2 monitors attached to my GF TI4600 video card
and nothing on the 3rd monitor.
Finally the 3 monitors become active !!!
Why nothing is visible on the third (3rd) monitor during boot session??
Is my installation incorrect?
Thanks in advance

Hello. Because windows has to load fully for the multi monitor function to
work.
The only reason you see the boot info on both of the other monitors is
because it is a dual head display adaptor and it mirrors the information
untill the drivers load.
yes your configuration is correct.. dont worry about it.
