.....I feel I've done my research before posting on this and I'm unable to find any answers. I have 3 monitors running on two graphics cards, which were working perfectly in Win XP. I decided to give Vista a try and the dual monitors are working perfectly considering they are connected to the same and primary card. My cards are both ATI: one being a Radeon X1300 and the other being a simple RAGE XL pci card. Everything on the web is telling me that as long as your cards are made by the same manufacturer everything should work correctly. However this is not the case. Vista automatically disables my RAGE XL card whenever my X1300 is set to the primary in the bios. Vice versa, as well. I'm very new to this sort of a problem and any help would be very appreciated. Thank you in advance for any advice.
