PCI card

[madhurak]

Hi All,

I have connected a PCI card "Sis"/ "S3 Trio" and one AGP card (Nvidia)
on a 2k machine. In Device Manager I am getting one monitor as "Plug
and Play" and other as "Default_Monitor". Is this a normal behavior? I
have tested with 4 PCI cards of different vendors either Device Manager
shows "Default_Monitor" or it detects only one monitor. Can anyone give
me any information about PCI card? Any kind of help will be
appreciated. Basically I want one PCI and one AGP card to work at a
time on machine and system should detect both the monitors connected to
PCI card and AGP card.

Thanks in advance.

In Device Manager the graphics cards should come up under Display Adapters,
and correctly named if you have the right drivers.

The names of the monitors will appear under Monitors only if you have the
right drivers for them. My Iiyama monitors get automatically recognised by
WindowsXP.
