Need help with 2 Monitors and 1 T.V.!

[!TIMMY!]

Ok I have a XFX 7800GS that i was using in Dual view with my 2 monitors (1 VGA and 1 DVI-D Adapter to VGA), and I had to change the dual view settings to enable the T.V. (S-Video) with 1 monitor. I couldnt run both monitors and the T.V. off this one graphics card. I wanted to get both monitors and the T.V. working all at the same time so I bought a Gainward Geforce FX5200 PCI card. I installed it and it works but now my 7800GS does not. In the Device Manager it says that:

"This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)

If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system."

Ive tried moving the PCI card to a different slot but that didn't work, neither did reinstalling the drivers (NVIDIA Display Driver 93.71 WHQL). Ive change the intial display in the BIOS from AGP to PCI and that didnt work. Ive run out of ideas can anyone help me???

It sounds to me like there is a memory or IO conflict, maybe you could disable one, take the settings down, disable the other and do the same and see if any conflict.

Take down what setting?

Sorry the memory and IO recources from the device properties in device manager.

Right the settings for the FX5200:

Memory Range: E90000000 - E9FFFFFF

IRQ - 21

I/Q Range - 03B0 - 03BB

I/Q Range - 03C0 - 03DF

Memory Range - 000A0000 - 000BFFFF

The 7800GS:

Memory Range: F80000000 - F8FFFFFF

IRQ - 16

I/Q Range - 03B0 - 03BB

I/Q Range - 03C0 - 03DF

Memory Range - 000A0000 - 000BFFFF

So the I/Q Range and Memory range is the same. How do I resolve this?

Im really stuck with this, google aint helping me much either, neither is the NVIDIA forums, please help me

Sorry I missed that this thread had a new post. I seem to remember that if you are having a conflict you can change the IO and memory range settings. Are there any options on what ranges to use?

I've not had any experience or heard of anyone using 2 graphics cards simultaneously in a PC - well except in SLi. Normally have to disable one to get the other to work (like onboard gfx).

Sorry I can't help much more, but hopefully someone more knowledgable can shed some light on this issue...

Thanks for the reply, the 'change settings' box is greyed out under the resources tab in the properties of the graphics cards in device manager. The 'use automactic settings' box is ticked and greyed out too. I have fiddled in the bios a lot but no joy how do I change the resource settings?
