Is it possible to use a motherboard's built in video card right along with an add on pcie video card...?

...simultaneously for a dual monitor setup.



my current pc system's video card only has one slot for a monitor. i'm not sure if i'll buy a new one that comes with 2 dvi sockets, or just use the disabled built in video card that came along with my motherboard.|||No. If you have onboard graphics it needs to be disabled before you can use a video card.|||Currently, I have a Compaq computer with an on board nVidia Geforce card, and also a PCI-E xfx Nvidia 8600. Both can be running and work well, as long as I use the vista supplied drivers, and not the nVidia latest drivers. It's a bios setting.
