Videocard problems when trying to run two screens on different cards

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have a dual screen setup that I cant get to work properly. One card is a 
PCI Trio64V+ and the other is a Matrox G100. When I run with just one, it 
works fine, but when I try to run them simultanously, X freezes and I have to 
reboot.

I tried to get both cards up and running in win98se and had no problems doing 
this, so it should be possible.

Any help is welcome.
