I havent tried it myself, so can't really speak from experience here. But i don't se why not?.. Radeon9250 is supported, and i don't think the difference between AGP and PCI should matter.
so my qualified guess is Yes yu can use a Radeon9250 PCI in a mA1 _________________

Right now it will not work, because the BIOS will hang when you have a second graphics card inserted into the PCI slot. However, the good news is that I finally fixed this bug yesterday, and the next firmware update will make it possible to use a PCI graphics card in the Micro. We're still betatesting the firmware, though. _________________

Sound nice.
when you say Second adaptor, does that mean you will be able to use the Internal graphics of the mA1 and a PCI based card at the same time, or will the internal graphics of the mA1 be disabled when you put a PCI graphics card in the PCI slot?.
btw: did you ever get my mail about WarpTest?  _________________

Thanks for the update. This is good news indeed. Several people have been wondering if it is possible to use graphics cards on the MicroA1.

| I use my PCI Radeon 9250 card (HIS 128 MB 64 bit) with AmigaOS 4! Great news Rogue!
Now, I have only one problem - can i using a Radeon 9250 PCI with my Debian Linux and MOL? Old Ross Vumbaca kernel (2.4.26) supported PCI Radeon9250? _________________

Music to my ears as my PCI slot has always been reserved for a better gfx card. 
Now if only we could get/find a riser card to work in the micro._________________

Rogue...is this a Uboot firmware update then.....can we expect to see it anytime soon?
I would love to use a 128 or 256M graphics card in my ua1!
Thanks,

I must admit I am intrgued by this firmware update and would like more information.
If it's a new UBoot update, what does it fix? _________________

Okay...so Rogue wrote that a firmware update will allow the micro to use a
PCI graphics card. What did I miss? I already updated my firmware once...don't
mind doing it again on my uA1-c. Not sure what you are saying here....

This thread started in Mar. of this year, so its not new information, but it would be nice to know if the next firmware update will allow a newer gfx card to work._________________
