dualview or multiple monitor feature? thanks in advance

You have both monitors connected and turned on?
They are of the appropiate sort for the output, ie dvi?
The updated driver is the one from the manufacturer of the card?

Did you download and install the latest drivers for your graphics card?

thanks for your interest
I have actually two cards:
1. NVIDIA RIVA TNT - originally came with my COMPAQ
2. NVIDIA RIVA TNT 2 - bought additionally

on each of them I did driver update and its OK
the problem is, that as soon as the second card is installed, only the second monitor is working.
besides, in the Device Manager in properties for the first card it says: this device cannot start (Code 10)
then, when second card is uninstalled, the first card works properly.
any suggestions?
will greatly appreciate

Send an email to nVidia to ask if these cards can be used together. Usually
you can only use a single instance of hardware, the second instance MUST be
different.

If you like nVidia cards, then ask them.... I'm sure they'll be happy you
may purchase another nVidia product.
