Dual Monitor - Old Graphic Card Problem



Hi,
I am trying to go from a single monitor to a dual monitor. My present
graphic card is integrated on to my motherboard. I have another old
graphic card - a PCI S3 Virge. The problem with this graphic card is
that its driver is not supported by Windows XP.
If I disable my graphic card on my motherboard - I can manage to get
this PCI graphic card to work.
If I hook up both the graphic cards - i.e. both of them are enabled,
the computer does not manage to boot (except in safe mode.) It should
also be mentioned that when my PCI card is plugged in - the computer
at time of booting uses it and not the monitor plugged into the graphic
card attached to the motherboard. Is there a way to change this. I
tried messing with i.e. all possible combinations of values in the
BIOS, but nothing seems to work.
I would be grateful if someone had some idea on what to try.

Thanks to all who take their time to think about this.
Regards,
Rio
