Define second virtual video card in a VM

Post by MMontemorra »

Is it possible to define a second virtual video card in a virtual machine that is tied to the second virtual screen? I have an older appliction that wants to see two seperate video cards and write to them individually. It is working for the primary screen using the VESA video card and driver but I can't see how to define a second virtual video card or if it is even possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated. aTdHvAaNnKcSe

Not that I know of. The virtual video only supports a single video card.
By the way I would get that keyboard checked.
