I just got a second monitor, and I was wondering how you hook it up. Along with being able to see a different view in FS? I think there was a topic like this in the past, but I don't remember.

This should be exactly what you are looking for. I hope 🙄
You can fly with one and have the GPS or whatever on the other.
It does take some of the power away from your video card and will drop your FPS somwhat.

that kind of helped, but where do you plug the second monitor into?

There are two outlets (plugs-receptors) in the back of your video card.
One is for a CRT and one is for an LCD monitor.
If you have two of a kind (not one of each monitor) you have to get an adapter for the back of the card.
