[amibroker] TWO MONITORS

I don't know much about computers.  I got a 
good deal on the below described Dual head card.  I emailed Matrox asking 
if it would work with Amibroker software.  
Below, I have pasted the Matrox answers 
to my questions.  A computer friend tells me that  the statement 
immediately following this sentence is confusing.
(You will need to use PCI video cards to set up 
multimonitor.)     My 
friend tells me that an AGB slot is a later model slot than the PCI slot, 
and  support has already identified my Dual card as an AGP type 
card, so why is Matrox support telling me that I will need to use PCI video 
cards in order to set up multimonitor?
Have any of you found that Amibroker charts will 
work well with my Matrox G450 AGP Dual head card?  I realize that the built 
in card on the motherboard will be disabled.  If any Amibroker users have 
had success with this card, then I will email support one more time for complete 
instructions on how to install it.  All help will be appreciated.  Ron

Hello The card you have is a Matrox G450 AGP Dual Head card with 32 MB 
of memory. This card can support dual monitor output, but compatibility with 
third party graphics, while possible is not always easy. There is a limit to the 
amount of compatibility testing we both can do and even a greater limit on 
working together with competitors to fix and compatibility issue.
There is an AGP slot on the PC but the integrated video is AGP as 
well.  This mean that when you plug in the AGP card the onboard will be 
disabled.  You will need to use PCI video cards to set up 
multimonitor.
