Forums -> Multiple monitors -> S3 PCI Card and ATI Radeon AGP Card troubles
TL   2002-09-29 06:19
Hi All!
I'm using 2 different cards , 2 monitors and WinXP proffessional
When I tell the BIOS that the primary card should be the PCI one /s3/ then WinXP finds the AGP ATI card and configures fine my dual monitors display.
The problem is that I want the ATI card as my PRIMARY display, but when i tweak the bios, the PCI card appears with ! mark - error code 10.
Surfing the net for a solution I discovered that in Win2000 in particular a certain problem exists concerning S3 cards. Can anyone tell me - is this problem gonna solve if I change my s3 card to some different one, or this is a problem about PCI-AGP in general??

Thanx in advance!

You can set the primary card in Display Properties > Settings, independent of which card is primary in BIOS.

This monitor will then be used for games etc.
