Keycorp k57h

[Phi]

Im trying to get an AGP : Ati Radeon 9200 to work with a secondary monitor (Keycorp k57h with a strange digital connector, not VGA)

on a CHips and technogies 65550 2mb card

the secondary monitor works on its own, but once a AGP card is inserted only the AGP monitor works but not both.

i have tried initialize setting in the Bios to PCI but if i do that neither monitors work at all... if i set it on AGP just the AGP monitor works...


dont know what else to do
could it be my motherboard not accepting both AGP and PCI?

any other ideas?

thanks v much

Thanks, but I have looked at that page lots of times, but it doesnt really solve my problem, as those posts don't solve that person's problems anyway...

I have installed all the drivers...

What OS are you running and does it support multiple monitors? Does both video cards show up in the device manager?

[Phi]

Windows XP

both cards show up

and the 2nd monitor shows up in the display properties and i can drag it around and stuff

i can even extend my desktop to it and move my mouse there

but the monitor is blank so i cant see what im doing there anyway

getting desparate....

I have a similar problem to Phi. Gateway 6100 series with ATI Radeon 9600. Two monitors attached, but secondary monitor is black. Gateway has replaced the DVI-VGA cable/adapter and the video card. I've spent hours on the phone with technicians. Everyone is very helpful, but no one solves the problem. They even sent out a technician, but he had no clue. Software-wise, like Phi, the computer thinks the setup is working perfectly. We've reloaded drivers... everything. Seems like it must be something simple but obscure.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks!!
