Plug in two monitors first. Then go to control panel > display > settings and see if you have two display adapters listed there in the pulldown menu on the center of the page. If you do, you just need to make sure you have checked off "extend windows desktop onto this monitor" checked on the monitor number two.
But it is also possible that your board is not built to handle two agp-driven monitors. I had an emachines intel mobo with integrated graphics and it could drive two monitors only if: one adapter was pci (in addition to the integrated driver which is agp), or if I had a dual monitor agp card like a Ti4200, but it could not address two monitors if one was an agp card and the other was the on board agp.
