Nvidia and ATI side by side

Hey

I'm running an older GeForce 4 MX440 as my primary video card and have a triple display system using 2 old school Matrox Mystiques. Forgetting how much ATI and Nvidia hate eachother, I bought a pci all in wonder for video editing.

Is there any way to get the Nvida and ATI cards to work in the same system, allowing me to ridiculously add a 4th monitor?

I come across this problem about once a year when I upgrade my primary video card (which is why i always stick with MX's or LE's), and am just hoping someone finally got down to writing a program to solve this stupid rivalry. ...there's gotta be something open source, right?

thanks for any feedback


 
AIW cards aren't supported in a multi-card configuration. However, when I did use my old AIW Radeon with an additional PCI card, the AIW had to be the Primary video card in order for the WDM drivers to load and be able to use VI or the tuner. Try setting the AIW as the primary card before installing drivers..you may have to pull the other PCI cards initially to get the drivers to install if it will work at all.

btw, I use my ATI cards with Nvidia chipsets and they work fine, so I doubt it has anything to do with their respective hate for each other🙂
