Hi. Can anybody help me. I was thinking of setting up dual display on my computer. At current I have Geforce card plugged into my AGP slot which i have my main monitor plugged into. And there is another blue display slot on the back of my pc. For some reason my computer doesn't realise the other blue slot is there, i think its onboard graphics, but am unsure. I havent got a clue about hardware, please could anyone help me out with this problem? I was thinking of buying a TFT monitor to plug into it but dont want to buy one if its not going to work. Thanks

with agpx1, agp2x, and agp4x you cannot havee multiple agp devices on a system. Your on board video is agp. So you will need a pci vid card to do multiple monitors, or an agp card that support multiple monitors by itself, but you can't use your on board agp plus another agp card.
