Hey, when i play a game, say UT3, if im watching a movie on my secondary screen it stops. Would running this monitor off a different pci graphics card solve this so i can watch a movie and play the game at the same time? if so, whats a good CHEAP card? (ie 50 dollars if possible)

Also on newer games it stops the sound in wmv and winamp and such from playing while in the game. Is there a way around this?

Thanks so much,

it has to be PCI not pcie16. my pcie16 slot is taken by my 8800gts, but i want another for my pci slot for two more monitors. also could i watch a movie on the spare pci one while playing a game on the 8800gts?
