Hi,

I have recently gotten a new monitor, and hooked my old one up in a dual monitor setup. But, everything seemed laggy with them both connected to my HD 7950. So, I pulled out my old GT 430 to power the extra display to take some of the load off the 7950. But, for some reason, even though the drivers are playing nice and everything, the 7950 is rendering frames for the GT 430? Any suggestions?

Well, in Windows vista it wasn't, but in XP and 7 you can have multiple video drivers at the same time. And I have both installed right now without any problems. But, for some reason, the HD 7950 does all the work while the GT 430 sits idle no matter what.
