You are reading from the QuickInstall guide. This guide is designed for
people who are upgrading their video card. Did you see any instructions
for dual monitor use? Remember dual monitor use was only introduced into
NT4.0 and Win98. NT4's support is rather limited.


Did you attempt to use the two cards?


Since you are trying for a dual moinitor configuration, disregard any
instructions concerning single monitor configuration (obviously).

Plug in two video cards into a system, if both are PCI, the one nearer
the first slot (where AGP slots usually appear) gets priority as pirmary
vidoeo card. If using AGP and PCI then the BIOS selections choose which
one gets priority.

Ibnstall drivers for both video cards when prompted.

Plug in two monitors

....


so... did you attempt it, or are you just asking because the
instructions say you can't?
