i think the card maybe defected- i bought it from eBay :(

Correct, so I think I was seeing the secondary (slave)- but how come the first monitor wont boot up? These are brand new monitors I got from dell.

Both monitors connected- only one boots up and wont show dock/toolbar.

I do not see another slot I can fit the ATI in? It's AGP. I want to use ATI to run both monitors, since its 128MB and this Nvidia (original) is 64mb.

one was functional, but showing background (no dock, toolbar, etc). The other would not boot.
