Based on sgi’s documentation, I recall reading that if you have a digital video option board installed that they say you should not install a SE gfx card for dual head.  I’m not sure if this is due to cooling, but my question is, why can I not install an SE card with a coexisting digital video board if I’m not planning on using or connecting to the DV board.  One option is to remove it and store it, but I rather ‘store’ it in the machine to risk not damaging it.  I’m always afraid inadvertently damaging the board by taking it out and storing it.

Question is, can I safely run an additional SE board along with digital video but not use digital video?
