Installing two graphics cards

install it onto PCIEX1 slot by default. Having two PCI Express Graphics cards at hand, set
them up onto PCIEx1 and PCIEX2 slots simultaneously.
2. The Scalable D.G.E. supports a four-monitor configuration when PCIE x16 slot and PCIE
x4 slot are working simultaneously.
3. Please note that the graphics card driver supports Windows 2000/XP only.

be unstable.
