Forums -> Multiple monitors -> using Intel 845 Onboard + XFX Fx5200 AGP

i have an Intel 845GBV mobo, which has a 64Mb onboard graphics card. In addition i also have a XFX Geforce Fx5200 AGP.
Is it possible to run two monitors off both the cards??

currently i have installed and am using the 5200, the intel drivers refuse to install probably because of some conflict.. Have tinkered with the AGP/PCI settings in the BIOS, but to no avail so far.

if I uninstall the nvidia drivers and disconnect the 5200 monitor, the intel card works perfectly.. need help :P

thanks in advance

you can't run both an agp video card along with on-board video at the same time. it's either one or the other.

I assume it's possible when using PCI card. Integrated graphics is connected via AGO, and you can't have multiple devices on one AGP bus...

I have heard that some recent computer models have TWO AGP slots. Is this correct? If so, then in a computer like this, would you be able to run both slotted AGP cards plus the onboard AGP card?
