i have a nvidia 6800gt running 2x dvi 2001fp (dell 20"lcds)

i tried to add xfx geforcefx5200 pci to run 1x analog NEC lt260k projector

the 6800gt and the dells have worked for almost a year not problems (thanks ultramon!) when i added the second video card my computer loaded, fine i loaded the drivers for the new video card(fx5200) it was recognized, and then restarted. got to windows loading screen and then BSOD...several times.

i then removed the fx5200 and powered on. got to the windows loading...BSOD. started in safe mode re-installed the drivers for the 6800gt and now everything works as good as it did, before i did anything...but i still have no second video card (fx5200 PCI).

what can i do to make both cards work?

Could you tell me what drivers did you install to get both your cards up and running? I have a similar setup and experience bsod maybe 8 out of 10 times trying to load winxp. When I finally manage to boot to windows everything works OK. I use the latest official forcewares and have my pci card as primary.

-GF6800 AGP
-GF5200 PCI
