I'm trying to get a GeForce GTX 480 working for hardware acceleration of Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 in conjunction with a Quadro FX1700. I brought the card from home and put it in my work desktop since the card I had at the time was starting to have some horrible fan noise and I was having issues with my video "editing" software at the time (Camtasia) was crashing constantly presumably due to the size of the video files I was working with. The reason I put the FX1700 in was to drive a 3rd monitor. However, I'm unable to use the GTX 480 for hardware acceleration without the latest drivers. When the FX1700 installs, it looks as though it rolls back the driver that the GTX 480 uses as well - some way old 25x.xx version.
After installing the newest drivers, hardware acceleration works, but the FX1700 and 3rd monitor don't. After uninstalling the FX1700 drivers from device manager, disabling and re-enabling it, the card and 3rd monitor work, but reverts the 480 back to the 25x.xx driver and hardware acceleration breaks.
I tried installing the new drivers by pointing device manager to the driver files themselves instead of using the installer, but the result was the same - the FX1700 stops working.
Questions:
1) Does anyone know of a method to get these two working together so that the GTX 480 is on the latest driver yet the FX1700 still works?
2) If not, anything from Nvidia that works with the same 347.xx driver should work, right?
3) Alternatively, what price range would I be looking at for a Quadro or Firepro graphics card that would be as or more powerful than the GTX 480? I'm open to suggestions here.
Thanks!
