I didn't know they still made PCI cards. Yes you can plug it into a regular PCI slot.

hehe the main reason pci cards are still there is because one certain company named intel forgot to put an agp slot in their early 845 mobos.the best part is that system assemblers still recommend it over other decent mobos.

I dont think so, I think there is no option in the Bios to disable the onboard GFX and both cannot run parallel !!! ;-)

If I remember right, 845 mobos will disable onboard grafx whenever an external card is plugged in. No user setting is required.

Well it is good if it does it, itself.
But I am shure that no such setting is given in Bios !!!
