Hello this is the last place on earth where I hope I can find help. I have an AGP ATI AIW 7500 as my main card and a PCI GeForce2 MX/MX 400 as a secondary card. Everything works fine if I have the PCI set in BIOS as the "Primary VGA BIOS." But when I make the the AGP card the primary I cannot select the "Extend my Windows desktop" to the PCI card, without Windows crashing. I have updated drivers a thousand times over. On another board it said that newest drivers for the GeForce card give Windows XP the fits so install older drivers.
I have Windows XP Pro SP2

Leave PCI set as Primary in your BIOS. If it works, why would you change it?

With ATI ALL-In-Wonder it has to be set to the primary card or else my dvd player nor my TV tuner will work

The TV tuner won't work in a dual-card configuration anyway, so you will need a separate TV card.

You need the right combo of ATI and NVidia drivers. Perhaps something has changed since this post is several months old, but I can confirm that ATI drivers 4.2 work with the current NVIDIA drivers, as described in this post:
