Some time Yes it work that way
OP
Yo mean that.. Yes.. it is posible.... i think my best choice is get a pci card and try it ..
I have an Asus P2B98-XV board with an onboard ATI Rage Pro AGP, I have installed a Voodoo3 2000 PCI and disabled the ATI in the Device Manager. It works fine. I am asuming that you have an HP comp. If you have TV out, you can kiss it goodbye. It will only work with the ATI.

Yeap.. exactly .. the same computer.. same MB also =), and yes.. its a HP Pavilion..
so i u wanna use tv out again.. i guess i have to enable the ati and disable the voodoo am i right? cause sometimes i connect the PC to the tv for a DVD movie night =)

Sorry for the double post..
just one more thing, i went to device manager and properties for the ATI, but the option to disable it ( device usage ) it is not avaliable ( gray ).. i becomes avaliable only if i put the voodoo3 in? just to make sure before going out and get one =)
