Default Dual monitors on Radeon 7000 without spanning. Is it possible?

We are running Windows 2000 Professional on a number of machines and are
trying to get multiple monitor support working with a Radeon 7000 card.

We tried a 9800 (card has 1 x DVI and 1 x DB15) and a 9600 AIW and they
both worked fine. The Display Properties with either of those cards shows a
picture of two monitors with numbers on them and you can re-size the
monitors on that screen. When you click on "Advanced" and then click on
"Displays", each monitor lists either a 1 or 2 allowing you to set which
monitor is which.

With the 7000 (card has 2 x DB15 plugs) installed, the Display
Properties just says "(Multiple Monitors) on RADEON 7000 SERIES". If you
then click on "Advanced" and go to "Displays", you can only pick "Clone" or
"Span across" or "Span vertical").

Is this a limitation of the 7000 card? Or just this model with 2 x DB15
plugs? Would a 7000 with a 1 x DVI and 1 x DB15 plug function the same way
as the 9800 and 9600 AIW cards we tried?

Steve
