[SECC] [Contest] WIN 10

[Courtney Judd]

ok guys thanks for the info so far! I have been using dual monitors for 
years with no problem until I attempted to upgrade to win 10. I use a 
NVIDIA GeForce 210 video card with 1024 MB ddr3 memory on the card with 
dual outputs. Currently using WIN 7 PRO and before that XP Pro... all 
worked great with two monitors. Anyway I may attempt to download 10 
again this weekend but nervous to try as you are only allowed to drop 
back one time and mine is used up! see what happens! tnx Cort K4WI
