2 Video Card / 3 Monitor Problem

Hey there!

I just bought a PCI video card to use for my HDTV projector. So the setup:

AGP 9700 DVI Port -> Flat Panel #1
AGP 9700 DSUB Port -> Flat Panel #2
PCI GeForce 5200 -> Projector

So I boot it up, install the drivers. But the projector isn't listed! (ie - in the Display tab where it usually shows two monitors) only two are listed.

The hardware (the 5200) is indeed listed in the System Manager.

So I reboot the machine, change the BIOS to PCI Init First.

Now I can use all 3 but I can't get the focus off the "1" video card (the projector) so things that are fullscreen seem to default to there.

What the heck can I do
