I have a Biostar motherboard (VIA chipset and S3 Unichrome Pro) that comes with pretty decent graphics. I have two questions:
1. After I have installed the driver, Display Settings shows Extended Desktop capability right away! I was just wondering where the second video may be located. Is there some connector on the motherboard that I can use?
2. If I plug in an ATI Radeon 9250 AGP card which has a D15 plus a DVI port, does it mean I can get three displays (including the motherboard one)?
Thanks in advance

Does the motherboard also have a TV output? If so, that could be the second output. You didn't mention the exact motherboard, so I couldn't look it up.
To the second question: Probably no. If the on-board video is using the AGP bus, then the add-on card can't use the AGP bus at the same time. It's one or the other.
A PCI video card should (generally, but not in all situations) work along with either the onboard video or an add-on AGP video card.
