Hi, I have a question regarding my own multiple monitor experience and if anyone can help me out id really appreciate it. for a while ive had 2 monitors. 1 hooked up to my computers integrated video and the other to a gf4 pci card. i just got a new monitor so i bought a gf4 agp card. when i plug in all 3 whichever one is hooked up to the integrated port doesnt work. its turned on but just acts as if its not connected or the computer is turned off. ive tried switching which monitors go into which cards but it doesnt seem to do anything. if anybody has any insight that would be awesome. thanks!

It is common knowledge (at least it should be) that onboard video and AGP don't work at the same time in at least 99% of computers.

Does your new AGP card have two ports, such as VGA and DVI? If so, it will probably support two monitors and you could still run a third monitor off your PCI card.

hey, so i have a Geforce 7 7300 GS 256MB DDR2 PCI express. i have only 1 monitor but am getting a second, i currently have my monitor connected to my graphics card but the motherboard has a VGA cable input as well, can i have dual monitors by simply connecting my new monitor to my motherboard VGA input? or do i have to buy something? my graphics card also has a DVI input input, so i guess that can be used as a second VGA input if i get a DVI-VGA adapter?

I'd get the adapter.
