Dual Video Card in 1 system?

To anyone with an answer ,
I have a Diamond Monster Fusion Voodoo Banshee Card (not installed yet) and an ATI All in WOnder Pro and a PC DVD Encore Dxr2 Card both in my system looped to each other. I want to incorporate the Fusion Card into my system BUT the fusion and the ati card both have only one VGA output each and the Encore Dxr2 card has a VGA in and a VGA out ports to it so this means I can only use one of the cards at a time by means of a loop cable. Does any one know of a utility of some sort where I can have all 3 cards installed and just simply click on a button in the utility where it would automatically install the different drivers and then reboot and just change the loop cable manually when I want to play games with the fusion or when I want to watch TV with the All- in WOnder PRo?

If you save your configuration (under hardware profiles in System properties) with your ATI installed and the fusion disabled, you can create another profile/configuration with the Fusion installed and the ATI disabled and then Windows should prompt you at startup with which configuration you want to use. I have never tried it but its something a friend did with a SCSI and a nic.
