Asus Mb/AMI BIOS, flashed to latest.
XP pro/ 2.3 ghz, so not too old.
Using Intel on MB graphics + ATI rage PCI card , both show in Hardware
screen as fine, no conflicts etc, but Display screen shows only the INTEL
card.

If I switch the BIOS to use PCI rather than onboard as the boot monitor,
the second one comes on, but the other then stays blank.

From my experience you cannot use onboard video with an adapter card for dual
video display. It is either one or the other. You need to get a graphics
card that supports dual monitors itself. Good Luck,
