From the Abit FAQ page, they suggest not using slot that use IRQ for video cards. Hope this help (if it does or doesn't, please share since a lot a people are using this board).

I can't say that all BH6 motherboards will support 3 monitors,
but mine does.

I'm using the same slots as you. ATI All-in-wonder PRO AGP in the
AGP slot and 2 ATI xpert 98 cards in the two closest (to the AGP)
PCI slots.

When you say it "knocks out the 2nd monitor", what do you mean?

If you go under "Control Panel", "System", "Hardware Description", "Display Adaptors", then click on the individual cards and then on
"Properties" does it show any sort of yellow exclaimation mark (!).
I think I had a problem with some EMM386 stuff and had to add a
line to my config.sys file or something like that.

Cheers,
Rob

My Abit BH6 also is running 3 monitors without any problems.

2 PCI Viper 330's and 1 AGP DIAMOND STEALTH II G460. All three cards are 8 megs so I am looking to upgrade fairly soon.

Best Regards
