EDIT: I have surrendered, I contact Nvida support and they said to run the two is impossible due to the drivers conflicting so I sent the 970 back to amazon and I have ordered a r9 290x
Hello World,
I've just bought a 970 GTX to take over from my old 260 GTX. I have the 970 working perfectly but I can't seem to get the 260 working alongside it. I currently have 2 monitors connected to my 970 and I'm hoping to get my 260 to run another 2.
From what I read two different GPU's in the same computer should work.. When I have one plugged everything works as it should but after plugging in the 2nd one Nivida GeForce only sees one. However if I go to 'Computer Management' Windows sees both of them and will display 'Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)'
I have a 750 Watt PSU, 16 GB of RAM and an i74790k so my hardware shouldn't be a problem.
Any help will be much appreciated
Thank you for reading
EDIT: I'm using 2 cards because of my monitor setup,
Sony - 1 DVI & 1 VGA
iiyama - 1 DVI & 1 VGA
LG - 2 HDMI
CTX - 1 VGA
my 970 has a VGA, 2 DVI 1 HDMI & a Display Port
my 260 has a VGA, DVI & a HDMI
my 260 is outputting to my CTX & Sony Monitors
my 970 is outputting to my iiyama & LG Monitors
