Anyone have any expierence with having both a AMD & Nvidia card on their XP system?
The AMD would be primary connected to 2 DVI monitors, and the Nvidia would only be used for TV-out. The AMD card doesn't support analog connections. Both cards are PCIe.

Oh boy your playing with fire now. jk jk jk I think.


I feel a blue screen coming because of driver tanglement. If you have guts do it but beware. You might have to go to safe mode and uninstall Cat drivers to make the nVidia work properly.... stuff like that.. You might be able to pull it off but its a long shot things will go smoothly... Hear from someone who has done it before you do it.

It isn't my box, or else I would try...

I was also thinking they might be able to use a hdmi ->vga->composite or perhaps displayport->vga->composite adapter(s) if they make them...

It will work with Windows XP 32bit, but not 64bit.

Will not work with any flavor of Vista.

Will work in Windows 7.
