I have an AGP Video card (ATI) and an nVidia PCI card
driving 2 seperate monitors. They are set-up as 1 & 2
with 1 as primary and 2 as extended desktop. Ok I here
you say, true but I have problems as the PCI (2) is being
used as the Primary and my Video Editing system needs the
AGP (1). Found out that PCI(2) is primary following a
look at the msinfo32 and displays, see below:

Any pointers so I can change so AGP is primary is
appreciated and hope the long post does not put you off. -

There is a setting in bios to have AGP as the first to initiate.

Ok, I got a few links for you, but first, I don't get why GeForce 2
isn't on the supported list. That may be part of your problem (see first
link for what I am talking about):
