Forums -> Multiple monitors -> help with 3 monitors

I've been using 2 monitors with a nvidia geforce 5200 for awhile now and very happy with it. Now my brother in law just gave me 2 more monitors and I couldn't resist, I had to try adding at least one more. I really don't know that much about doing this...but I tried going into bios and couldn't find a way to make the onboard video the primary. I tried several other settings and couldn't get that 3rd monitor to come on. I decided to just get another video card but realized I only have one pci slot. It's getting kind of frustrating. Any tips? Thanks.

I've heard that you usually can't use onboard video at the same time as an add-in video card. You'll either need 2 video cards (one AGP, one PCI, or 2 PCI), or you'll need a 4-output video card, which is expensive.
