I recently purchased an ATI X1950XTX. I'm running dual monitors. Viewsonic VX924 and VX2025wm. Both running via DVI. I install Vista and everything is fine. Once I install Catalyst 7.1 and restart, my primary monitor (2025wm) goes blank with no video signal on screen. I boot into safe mode and it works fine. I tried installing XP incase it's a problem with 7.1 Vista driver, but the same thing happens. I tried going back to 6.12 Catalyst but same problem.

I am currently running my primary via VGA and my VX924 via DVI. But that won't work cause I run my Xbox 360 via VGA onto my primary monitor so I need to run dual DVI's. I know it's not a hardware problem otherwise it wouldn't work in safe mood or before I installed the catalyst drivers. When I go into display properties, my 2025wm is showing as secondary and disabled. I click enable and make primary but it just reverts back to disabled secondary. Anyone else have this problem or can offer some advice. Thanks alot.
