TraderAlan, I had a VE card but I could not get it to coexist with my ATI RAGE PRO (not 128) card. The symptom was that the VE card would always boot into single monitor mode and I could not configure it for dual monitor mode when both cards were installed. The RAGE PRO card would always be detected as the second monitor. The ATI site ati.com indicated that my RAGE PRO card did not support muti-monitor setup. Yet Win2K found it and it was working fine. Finally gave up and returned the card, the shop sold it next day to a happy customer. The problem could well have been because of the RAGE PRO not supporting muti-monitors. My memory is fading fast on the VE experience but is there a BIOS setting to not use the AGP as the primary card while having 2 cards installed? It may be trying to default to the PCI slot for primary in multi mode. I just don't remember now. Regards, Nick
