I have always kept my video card in the first slot - whether the original Twin Turbo or the ATI Rage 128. I would do that, and throw away any monitor-related preferences while you're at it.

However, I've run into an annoying little hiccup: sometimes when I cold
boot, or even when I restart, I lose my set screen resolution and colour
depth. I am running an SVGA monitor on a Twin Turbo card set to 1024x768
100 Hz, millions of colours, with Twin Turbo Control Panel installed (note:
I was having this problem before installing the control panel, as well).
Occassionally, I loose this resolution when starting and it defaults to
640x480, thousands of colours, and when I check either the Monitors CP or
the Twin Turbo CP, no other resolution is listed as available. The only way
I can fix it is to reboot while clearing the PRAM, and even then it often
takes a couple of tries. Any ideas?
Oh, one more note: the display adapter is in one of the lower 4 PCI
slots. I've thought of moving it to one of the upper two. Would that help?
