Yes. I have one motherboard here that has both PCI and AGP slots. It

worked fine with AGP (running Windows) for a long while. Then the AGP

socket started developing intermittent connection problems that

progressively got worse until the AGP slot quit working entirely. In the

meantime, PCI video cards work just fine.
