I picked up a desktop computer that has a GeForce TI4800se and it has a DVI
connector and a regular video connector.

I didn't get any manual with the computer and I was wondering if I can connect
a flatscreen LCD on dvi and the regular monitor, to get dual monitor?

Will this one card support dual monitor, 1 regular video and 1 dvi?

yeah, you should have no issue doing that.
Just connect the LCD via DVI, and the CRT via Analog.
I'd suggest using the Dual View feature, and not clone/horizontal span.
That way you can set a different resolution/refresh rate for each monitor.
