At a minimum a second PC Card or serial modem is required to take advantage of Multilink. 26 Currently, the only Armada notebook to ship with integrated USB is the Armada 7800. All others require optional USB hardware such as the Compaq USB PC Card. 27 Multiple Monitor Support requires multiple video controllers. Only the Armada 7300, 7700 and 7800 feature a dual video controller architecture that enables this feature. In the case of the Armada 7800, as of this printing, the video drivers shipped by Microsoft with the operating system and those shipped by Compaq do not support this feature. Compaq will release specific Windows 98 video drivers for the Armada 7800 that will support this feature. All other Compaq notebook families listed as not supporting Windows 98 multiple monitor features may support it using a second video card in a docking station. 95 95 Windows Windows Windows Window Windows for .
