Adding a second PCI Express card on HP Pavilion p6214y Desktop PC

Hello:  I have HP Pavilion p6214y Desktop PC - running Windows 7.

 

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01905330&lc=en&product=4006029

 

*************************************************

Integrated graphics
using nVidia GeForce 9100.
    Supports concurrent use of dual displays connected to onboard DVI and VGA connectors.
    Also supports PCI Express x16 graphics cards as independent graphics adapters.*

*************************************************

 

PC has built-in video adapter card with 2 ports VGA and DVI. As now I have more than 2 monitors so I added the PCI Express card in the PC "Diamond Multimedia ATI AMD Radeon HD 5450 PCI Express GDDR3 1GB Video Graphics Card 5450PE31G".

 

After I added the PCI express card - I can only see the monitor connected to the new PCI e card - and - can not see monitors connected to built-in video card. Device Manager does not show the built-in video card either.

 

After searching through the Net and HP support forums - some posts have suggested that two video adapters can be used and some posts have suggested only one video adapter can be used in the PC.

 

My Question: Is it possible to use two video adapters on HP Pavilion p6214y Desktop PC -and if so, how?
