Problem Motherboard disabling onboard graphics when AGP card plugged in.

I'm trying to get 2 monitors to work on my pc. I've had an AGP card for ages, and I've got some old monitors lying around so I thought this was a good idea. The problem is that my motherboard disables onboard video as soon as I plugin another graphics card. I've tried using a PCI card and the AGP card which didn't work out. And removing the AGP card and then rebooting on my onboard video, which worked fine. Then I reinserted my AGP card and my computer disabled the onboard video. Does anyone know how I can get this to work?

I'm using a ATI Radeon 9600 and an ASROCK M266A motherboard.

Update:

I have been able to switch between the 2 monitors by switching between the following options in the menu item "Primary Graphics Adapter:

-PCI
-AGP
-Onboard AGP

Thank You.
