    Problem with 2 cards and 3 monitors

    I have P3 800,

    -Matrox G450 Dual Head AGP,
    -ATI 3D Rage PCI,

    and 3 monitors.

    Works fine under Win98, I can get all 3 monitors.
    But it doesn’t work on Win2000/XP.
    Works only AGP card Matrox.
    (or if I switch in Bios to primary PCI, only ATI PCI works then)

    Any idea how to get both cards and all 3 monitors to work under Win2000/XP?

    Are both cards working in the Device manager?

      Only one.

      Depends which one I set as primary in BIOS.

        IIRC, there is a jumper on the ATI card for IRQ usage, make sure it is jumped to enable IRQ usage.

        Failing that, move to a different PCI slot, but again only after you enable IRQ usage.
