That's completely normal. The second card won't become active until you're in the OS. Enjoy the dual heads - they're great!

Subject: [CS-FSLUG] Dual Head Configuration

I have a desktop computer that I am trying to set up as a dual head system in 
order to test configuring the Lyricue system.  

The computer has a Asus P2B-F motherboard.  In the BIOS there is a "VGA BIOS 
Sequence" setting that toggles either AGP/PCI or PCI/AGP.  I have an AGP card 
and a PCI card installed.  

When the system boots, only one monitor is becomes active, the first one in 
the VGA BIOS Sequence.  The system does not use a boot splash or anything 
other than a plain text boot sequence.

Is it normal to not see anything active on the second card?  Do I have a 
limitation set by my BIOS?

Thanks.
