Dual ATI video cards

I have a 9800 AIW right now which is working great. The only problem I have right now is that it only supports 1 monitor. I just got another monitor which forces me to put another video card in the computer which is fine. I put in a Rage 128Pro AIW and now both AIW features (tuner) fail to initialize. So now i'm looking for a video card just for the purpose of dual monitors. Recommendations? Will a radeon non-AIW play nice with my AIW 9800pro? Or should I go nVidia? Which video card would be best for this situation?

Thanks,

If you get 2 ati cards make sure they are ATI and not just powered by ATI. the reason being is that they have to share the same driver. I had problems with a 9600 card I bought that just wouldn't work correctly. I've run with several configurations (ATI AIW 8500 / nVidia 200 / nVidia 420)ran well, (ATI AIW 8500 / nVidia 200) ran well (ATI AIW 8500 / ATI 9600 offbrand) didn't run well at all
