I have installed Trident Video Acceleraor from an old CPU to PCI Slot#2
of my Intel P4,this device can't start.I run windows update driver,but
it is said installed driver don't need further update.
Following is my driver details:

D:\Windows\System32\tgiul50.dll
File Ver:5.1.2462.0015(Released Binaries 0103081115).

I read further details written on card:
Trident Main Chip(TGUI 9680-1,E CBB 01,MAL 26,9748/47TRTU)
On Card's back side:KY2 TVGA96PCI,Tested to comply with FCC.
Serial#/Barcode?:TV57 8236539

Are you trying to run this as a secondary video card?

If so, it may not work as a secondary video card due to hardware limitations
(unlike Win9x, WinNT based OS have tighter video card requirements for use
as a secondary video card).

What about trying to access into motherboard's BIOS and look for a
setting like "Primary Display", "Primary VGA", etc. The settings are
typically something like "AGP/Onboard" and "PCI". Try setting to
"PCI".
This will make the Trident card my new primary VGA, and maybe the
onboard Intel graphics(Intel(R)82845G/GL Graphics
Controller,Video BIOS Version 2759) will work its way around the
Trident.

That card is so old, I would not be surprised if it had hardware limitations
that prevented it from being a secondary video card (you'd get the code 10
error). I've had this issue with ATI video cards that are superior to your
card (i.e. the ATI Rage64).

See here for a list of the lowest generation of video cards required for
multimonitor support in Windows XP.

As you can se, there are no old trident desktop cards that will work as
secondary video cards.

One thing you could try...

Assuming your primary video card can work as a secondary video card, set
your trident card to be the primary card instead.

That said, I'd still recommend you drop $50 on a video card that will work
as a secondary display.

That's basically what I said (in not so much words).
