I have a AIW 8500-DV in my [AGP] port and it's working just fine. I would
like to also have dual monitors on my setup. I also have an AIW Rage 128 Pro
[PCI] just sitting around. What's the chances that I could get both AIWs
going in the same system (and working properly)?

Try it, plug it in, if you got XP should be no problem.

If you boot up be sure to set the bios option to use the AGP card first.
Otherwise the PCI card will be the primary gfx card.

When you find out let us know.

http://www.realtimesoft.com/multimon/
go here and read up on that card combonation.
your probly gona need to go to bios and set it to boot to PCI first.
but after you get it up and runing you can always play your games on the agp
card.

Well I did it and it's working just fine. Windows XP didn't have the proper
driver for the Rage 128 for some reason and I had to download it from ATI. I
only installed the graphic driver set. It's doing just what I want it to do
now (giving me two working monitors). I'm too scared of messing things up to
install the MMC for the AIW 128 also.
I have a ASUS P4T-E Motherboard with the latest BIOS installed but I could
not find anyplace to switch my primary video card. As my system boots up I
see the Windows XP loading Logo on the PCI screen but when it get to the
login screen, that shows up on my AGP screen and the AGP screen remains the
primary screen from then on.
Bottom line is that it works and I'm happy.
Thanks everyone.

Update:
I have found that all my webcam compatible programs such as P2P messenger,
MS IM, and Yahoo IM, all have problems detecting the right card to get the
video signal from(and end up locking up the program or showing no video)
I've been around and around with this, changing setting and reinstalling
drivers but in the end none of the applications know how to handle two
All-In-Wonder cards.
Well it was a good try.

Oh I have LOTS of cheap PCI cards. I got them when the company I worked for
went out of business and they told me to take whatever I wanted. I switched
to a VooDoo III and it's working fine now. I was just curious about running
two AIWs at the same time. It was a fun experiment.
