I just upgraded to a x1600xt from a radeon 8500. I also have a ATI 9250 PCI card to run my third monitor. This setup used to work when i had the 8500, but now with the x1600xt and the 9250 is in the computer it will get into windows and then restart. When i take it out it works fine but then i only have 2 monitors working. Is this a driver problem or something? If anyone has a solution it would be apperciated.

the x1600 is a much beefier card than your old 8500. Whats your power supply? it might not have enough juice to keep up.

Also, It could also be a driver conflict. Install hte 8500 again. go into windows, uninstall ALL ati related drivers etc..

INsert new Card, Go online get newest drivers and install.
