I've been using it at 16 bit without problems. If I am correct, the video setup does not allow manual control over the secondary monitor resolution, etc., at least not through Display Properties. One of my monitors will handle 85 Hz refresh, and the other only 70. I suspect that the card sets both to the highest rate that both cards will handle, but forget what actually happened when I had the faster monitor as the primary display (it is now secondary, and refresh rate is not directly accessible for it). I've now switched to 32 bit, it also seems to work fine.
