Hello...I'm fairly sure this isn't possible, but can you use the integrated graphics and an AGP video card at the same time? My Radeon 9250 has multiple outputs, but one's a DVI and I don't want to buy the $5 adapter is there's a free way to do this...

I have a 17" and a 15" CRTs. I want to run the 15 as a secondary monitor so that the adequate integrated graphics can keep my desktop up on the 15" while I'm playing a game on the 17"...is this possible this way?

I doubt it, but as I said, if it's free, I'll try it.

Thanks ahead of time!

No you wont be able to. The Internal Graphics card will use the AGP bus which is a single device bus, so it will have to be disable it first.

If it where PCI graphics interface then you could use them both together as the PCI bus can support multiple devices.
