combine the power no you can run separate monitors off them though

I really don't recommend it, as the nVidia Control panel and the Catalyst control center do not play well together. Be sure to DISABLE the onboard video, or else you will come up with a blue screen on boot. (uninstall CCC too)

If I remember correctly, only the XP system will even allow both drivers to load at the same time, but you wont be able to combine their power to run a game, just multiple monitors like 505090 said. Vista will only load one driver or the other, but not both.

yes only with xp should have stated that. vista won't support not sure about win7 but i doubt it as they run the same code base
