If anyone could help me I guess I'll find him (her?) here!
As an AGP card I use a Geforce 256 (DFIboard, 384 MB Ram, K6/2-500, Win2k, Detonator XP 23.11), which works quite satisfying. BUT I tried to install my old TNT PCI-Card as second graphic device and when I activate the second screen in Win2k-display settings it takes 10-30 secs to freeze up the system.
I tried driver up-/downgrade (21.81, 14.70), but either it won't recognize the second card or freezes. As usual with Win2k, all the cards (incl. sound and nic) share one IRQ which should not be the problem (well, if this is it (which I don't believe), I have to accept it and sell the TNT ;)). I also tried a TNT AGP card, but the system freezes even if this is the only videocard.
So my conclusion is that the new DetonatorXP can't handle the TNT and the old Detonator 3 that handles the TNT the right way does not support multi-screen with Win2k.
Is there something I haven't tried? I recently got 27.something, will this work?
Help!
