How to use both on board video and video card?

I have a Dell E521, and my friend added a GeForce 7600GT into my computer. The computer runs windows XP. There are currently two monitors hooked up to it. I want to hook up a third monitor to the computer by using the video output on motherboard, is that possible? how can I do it??



thanks!|||Sorry, but that's not possible.

Most (if not all) motherboard BIOS will disable the onboard graphics when a graphics card is detected.

And even if it didn't, Windows only allows one graphics driver to run at any given time.|||You can use multiple video cards on the same system...but the onboard video will be disabled. I use two video cards with dual outputs..4 monitors total. If one is AGP, you will have to set boot order in setup to designate the primary card. Hope this helps...
