Anyways, now i contemplate if I have the bawls to try this again with my new motherboard that will come in tomorrow... or just leave it be with only 1 video card in there.
Here is the layout of the slots on this HP board...
------- PCI
-------- PCI-Express (the BFG 8800 gfx card was here)
------- PCI
---- PCI-Express x8 prime (wtf)
---------- PCI-X 133 (wtf) (the voodoo card was in this slot)
---------- PCI-X 100 (wtf)
---------- PCI-X 100 (wtf)

I would try it again. Just be careful to discharge and static elec before you begin and make sure the PC is powered off before switching the video cards in and out. I'm sure you know this but ya never know...........
Microsoft has a site that you can check the compatability on all video cards for the 64bit O/S........maybe look at that...........
