I'm trying to run both a GeForce GTS 250 and a Quadro 600 in the same computer. Before you say that's impossible, know that is has worked before. It gets messed up with every big update of windows, Since the latest update, I can no longer remember how I got it working all those other times. If it was possible a week ago, it should still be possible today. Any ideas?

The Program "DifferentSLIAuto" is a small, free tool that allows you to pair together different GPUs of similar generation/architecture to work together in SLI. Mixing different VRAM sizes will cause some instability or stop SLI from functioning properly. I dont know anything about your gpu's however.

I don't need SLI or anything fancy on this computer. We no longer try to use it for 3D or anything. I just need all three monitors to work. There are two monitors on the GeForce, which requires working drivers up to version 242. There is one monitor on the Quadro, which needs drivers higher than 242.

If you install Quadro drivers after the Geforce, the computer reboots to black, then after a hard reset, the quadro will work, but the Geforce won't have proper drivers. If you then try to reinstall the Gefore drivers, the Quadro then stops working.
