We bought a Awesome V1 45, AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 939, ATI Radeon Xpress 200, 160G
HD, 512M, DVD±RW, XP Home - Retail system.

What I would like to know is can I add a ATI Radeon All In Wonder. This is
a older original radeon before they started adding numbers after the name.

Can I do anything with that situation to that system and still have access at
times to the other ATI on board video for non editing times so I can say
play a game that needs the pixel shader etc that the on board supports?

I dont want both active at the same exact time of course.

I am primarily interested in being able to do some video work with that AIW
when the desire arises.

That seems to be a PCI Express machine, which means that a Radeon 9600 or
any other AGP board cannot be used in it.

You'd do better to just get a decent capture board.
