i know we got some computer wizzez round these parts so hopefully someone will be able to help... i have had a look on some computer forums but i cant make any sense of them...
i have a nvidia 9500gt (in pci express slot) and am running 2 x 22" monitors off of it, one via dvi, one via vga.
i found an old 15" lg in cash converters and got them down to £20 (its bloody good picture too)..
slotted in an old nvidia 6200 (into pci slot) - plugged in the lg via vga... nothing
im running windows 7, it tried to install the drivers automatically and decided to try and use the standard display adapter drivers, despite the nvida 6200 being supported by the 9500 driver...
it then told me it wasnt working and said my 6200 doesnt support dx9 (aparently a minimum requirement for windows 7).. which i know it does!
i even got the monitor working by removing my 9500gt card.... but then i guess that was because it was just useing the standard display adapter drivers whilst the 9500 wernt in use
i am lead to belive windows 7 will only allow the use of one display driver... which shouldnt be a problem since both cards are supported by the 9500 drivers... but i cant for the life of me get it to run the same drivers for both displays....
anyone got the first clue how to fix this problem
