If you know: You mean, in XP Pro if I just throw a leftover video card into my PC (which has integrated eg; on-motherboard video) and hose up another monitor (and check the “2 monitor” desktop option as you said) BOTH video outputs will work; and the add-on card won’t “override” the integrated video?
Joyful if true! Now I have a Saturday experiment!

At least, that's what my PC did.
