I need two monitors on the video card

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a system which is a server motherboard using windows 2000 pro. the motherboard is Intel SE7210TP-E FRU Ver 0.01
It has an onboard video card. I need to have two monitors. The standard video cards do not fit into the available PCI-X slots (3 available) The slot is PCI-X 64/66
The only PCI slot on motherboard has been used for something else which I need.
Do you have any suggestion and do you thing the motherboard is too old (I think it is about 3 to 4 years old and doinjg my work very well) to be upgraded??
Thanks
Abe

You would definitely need another pci slot so you can install a videocard on your computer.

You could get a pci expansion box , It's an attachment that converts a single pci slot into many pci slots out the pc in another box.
