This is for Wintel machines only. Does anyone know how to make your AGP Graphics card the primary? I have a Voodoo 5500 AGP and an ATI All In Wonder 128 Pro PCI. I have a 17" monitor which hangs off the Voodoo for now and a 14" 300 year old monitor that hangs off the ATI. This older monitor can only achive 800 by 600. I don''t want to swap manitors becuase I want to play games on the Voodoo (I have a 500MHz Celeron so I play in 1280x1024 32bpp plus resolutions). I would like to make my ATI the secondary so when developing I can debug (more) easily (without having to run in windowed mode, which incedently you can''t do any more if you have more than one graphics card). I can''t buy another monitor, because if I spend any more money on my computer my wife will divorce me P.S. Any one tried three video cards? -------------------------- Carpe Diem

It''s should be in your bios. I did mine this way but it took a lot of searching and reading every value in the bios.

here''s a link with some more information
