Hi
Ive got a pc running Windows ME and an old Diamond Stealth 2500 as my primary card and a ATI 3D RAGE II as my secondary. Both the cards are installed I get the usuall msg in the second monitor (If u can read this....)But in device manager it says "Multiple display support cant start the device.The area of memory normally used by video in use by another program or device" It says this for the ATI CARD.However it dosent say in resorces what areas of memory it needs so I cant reserve anything.It would B a great help if anyone has a clue 2 this.
Thanx in advance,
Robbo.
