January 26, 200521 yr Hello,I want to buy a new PC and ordered it with a P4 3,4 GHZ soket 775 and an PCI-express mainboard P5AD2 Premium from Asus. Because I need 4 monitors, it must have 1 PCIex16 Videocard GF6600GT and another normal PCI-Videocard FX 5200 with connector for 2 monitors. After assembling of the components and testing the computer shop called me and said that the second video-card dosen't work because of a bus mastering problem, that occurs with the PCIe bus and the old PCI bus. In general it wouldn't work with PCIe-boards. Now I have to take an old AGP/PCI board to get the 4 montiors working.Is anybody using a PCIe board and videocard with an additional old PCI video card? Anybody with AGP and 2 or more video-cards?Tony
