   Intel Extreme Graphics 2 + Nvidia 5500 Dual Monitors
  I have an Intel Extreme Graphics 2 integrated card on my mobo and i just installed an Nvidia 5500 (AGP).  I was hoping to use a monitor on each card for dual monitors... but when the Nvidia card is installed, Windows can't detect the integrated card.is that by design?  is there no way around it?  or am i doing something wrong?   
  That's usually by design as older chipsets typically only supported a single agp bus. If you had a PCI video card it could possibly work however, no promises though.   ;  i have the 865GBF - i guess that's probably old... how lame.  does anyone know how i can find a definitive answer? (i already RTFM'd)   ;  You might want to check your NVIDIA card. Most of the later NVIDIA cards, 5xxx and on up are dual head.   ;Quote:Original post by MastabaYou might want to check your NVIDIA card.

However, as evident by my old Radeon 9200, the card may not have 2 physical outputs.   ;  ...meaning that i just need to buy an adapter of some sort?
