RE: Multiple Display Adapters - Cannot get 2nd to work..

I've since found out what it was. Vista only allows one Vista Mode Device
driver to load at once, so the driver needs to support both cards. Needless
to say, they need at the least to be from the same manufacturer. I ended up
buying a new GF 7600 card to go with the 5200 and it then worked fine.
However, you do have the problem that the 5200 is the highest spec PCI card
you can find (or at least I could) and performance sucks with the Aero skin
on.

In the end I uninstalled Vista, reinstalled XP and put my X800 back in with
my 9250 and they're both working fine.
