So i just bought a new computer. HP a1130n AMD 64 athlon with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 video card with only one monitor hookup. I have my old monitor from my other computer. Is it possible to hook up another videocard to run that monitor. if you do, what would you suggest. I just need to for everyday use. so please any help would be great

xpress 200 is onboard video. you'd want to just get a pcie video card with dual heads.

define "cheap". give a price range. do you need dual dvi or not? at least, it would be a PCIe card.

something like an ati x1650pro would be ok. I would just go with dual dvi. you can always use the dvi to vga convertor until the day you get 2 DVI LCDs.
