I bought 2 Made By ATI Radeon 7200s (64mb/AGP/TV/VGA/DVI) for a friend of mine who uses 2 computers (1 with 2 mointors) and is running Windows 2000. I also had to purchase a separate DVI->VGA adaptor in order to hook 1 of the machines with with dual monitors up. After hooking everything up, I turn on the machine with dual display and get a mirrored image on both screens, so far so good. But I get in and load the Catylst 3.4 drivers, the 3.4 control panel and Hydravision 3.2 and run into a problem trying to do dual display. I know ATI and 2000 have some problems with dual display, but I can't even get it to detect a DVI monitor to enable the output on the monitor in the Display tab of advanced Display properties. It shows the VGA as enabled, TV out disabled and DVI out as disabled. I have tried loading older driver combinations, uninstalling hydravision etc.. I put the DVI adaptor+moniotor on his other pc with the other 7200 and load of the software and get the same problem, I cant even get to the point where I can enable the DVI to set it up as a secondary monitor.
On another note.. The original card I replaced out of the machine with dual head was an ATI Radeon (7000) VE which in put in about a year ago and had the same problems getting it to seeing a second monitor attatched. I did finally get this working some how but I don't know how. If anyone has a suggestion I would be appreciated
