 Thread : Help.. Trying to hook up 3 monitors...
 
More Information

Currently have an AMD 1.2gig platform w/AGP slot. I am trying to hook up 3 monitors. My bios loads PCI cards first before the AGP card (went into the bios and it won't let me change the order)

There are two AGP dual head cards that I am thinking of buying: either the Radeon VE or the Matrox G450 AGP cards. I already have a PCI video card already. I would like to hook up a dual head AGP card w/my PCI card.

My question is: can these dual head AGP cards boot up as the SECONDARY display since my bios boots PCI cards first? Again, I am trying to hook up 3 monitors in the most efficient way possible. (I know I can go 3 PCI cards)
