I have all my workers using dual monitors on the D630's.  Never had an issue...

Curious about that statement if you find it.

We do this with Dell Dimension 630's and a docking station on Vista.
I did have to disable the TMM task, but that's a Vista thing.  Ours use "nVIDIA 
Graphics Driver A00" from Dell.  About every three months after patch Tuesday 1 
of our 20 some odd 630's will get confused about external monitors.  It may 
swap them or forget about one of them, but its pretty rare.  Dell released a 
statement about that.  I will see if I can dig it up.
