Did you have the pci graphics card in your old setup?

If you want 2 monitors (who does'nt) i suggest you buy a twin monitor card for the AGP port.

I'd recommend a new geforce 4mx card.

I have had an extra PCI card
for monitor on my old setup yes.
but this is another one. ATI 16 MB.
it have been in a blue/white G3
maybe thats the problem, this ATI PCI card.
I can connect a second monitor
to my AGP its a Twinview 64 MB Gforce 2.
but it has to be a monitor with digital connections,
and I got a 17" grey/blue apple
and a 19" scott, none of them has digital connections.
thats why I use I PCI card for now.
I gonna check out if I find a adapter
so I only can use Pulsars card on the PCI slots and nothing else,
I guess it will work best then

I take it by digital connections you mean dvi connections?
These carry analogue signals as well, a simple adapter costs about ten euros.
I got one free with my card, (ati radeon ve)

try
http://www.newegg.com for that adapter. No difference between mac & pc as far as gfx cards go (anymore) and it'll probably be half the price.
