    Two video cards

    Hi i have a mother board with an on baord video card (A geforce 4 MX) the baord is an Epox baord with a Nvidia nforce2 chip set, EPoX 8RDA+. The baord has an AGP slot for a video card. I want to be abel to use both the onbaord car and the AGP card at the same time but when i plug in the AGP card the on board card seems to completely disapear (its not shown in device manager)

    Does any one know how i can stop the onboard card from diaspearing??

    yes it seems the problem is that the onboard card was useing the AGP stuff but now since the AGP card wants that stuff the onbaord card wont work. O well i guess two monitors is enough. Not sure if i could fit four on my desk.
