In the science lab at my school me and some friends have set up an old P2 333, and saw there was some spare stuff laying around. Im wondering is it possible to put 3 old PCI video cards into one mobo, and have all 3 function. Im assuming it wont, but if it is id like to hear about it.

It will work, but it will not act like one monitor spanning over 3. . .

In other words, your desktop will appear on the primary, then a virtual desktop will appear on the other two. What that means is that the start menu is on the primary, and the others are just space to hold stuff in, or watch movies in, etc.
