What kind of card is it? PCI. PCI-E or AGP.

A lot depends on the motherboard it is plugged into. It is might be possible with a PCI card, depends on the BIOS. Quite impossible with AGP. Might be possible with PCI-E.

wow.. soo dev.. as it turns out my mobo doesnt even have onboard graphics lol.. its a fairly new board too but i guess its the kind of board under the presumption that the buyer has a seperate card for the job. (has both AGP and PCI-e slots)

sorry for wasting anyones time, though if anyone has anything furth to suggest for those with a simmilar question, a reply might still be a good idea.

thanks.
