2 Video Cards 1 Motherboard
Hello everyone,
My friend just recently gave me a XFX GeForce 7900 GS Video card. I already have a ATI 2900PRO installed but I do have a free PCI x16 slot available. I was wondering if anything would happen if I installed this card in the empty slot? Will it work normal or would I have to do anything. The reason why I ask is because 1 video card is ATI and the other is NVIDIA so I'm confused. Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm not really looking for gaming...my ATI 2900Pro is used for main gaming purposes. I basically want to be able to use my other video card to run some performances on my other monitor then have my 1 video card split. The reason y pretty much is to have a game running on the main while somebody could lets say...browse the internet or whatever on the other
There's nowhere I can't reach.

I tried on my own...didn't get very successful at all...I guess it created a HUGE conflict and my video didn't turn on anymore...the video only shows up on safe mode but in safe mode or in VGA mode my keyboard and mouse doesn't work...and I get a .INF error.
So i had to install Vista Ultimate due to the fact it doesn't really wipe out your hard drive but just puts all your files in windows.old folder. Backed up all my data to a external and about to re-install windows XP... So should I try again or just leave this video card out and call it quits keeping my 2900PRO alone inside my mobo? How ya doing, buddy?
