I've seen in a couple of magazines people using a 2nd monitor to display flight instruments.

Is this possible with FS2004 and if so how? Thanks for any help.

Yeah i guess and there was a post mentioning it..But your video cards should be dual headed.Connect the second monitor to the other port on your video card..Go to Windows Display properties and select the second monitor..If you are not able to get it then search on windows help of how to enable second monitor in windows..That shud help.Then i guess when u start the Flight simulator you will need to create a new view and then drag and drop this view on the second monitor.Hope you understand about creating a new view in MSFS...If not then let us know and let us know how you have progressed..
