Dual monitor in windows ME

[billabong]

Hi, I'm trying to get dual monitor to work in Windows Me. I've got a Dell Optiplex GX1, with an integrated ATI Rage Pro Turbo AGPx2 and a Matrox Millennium 2 PCI card installed. The computer boots using the Matrox card and loads into windows, but the ATI display is all corrupted. When I move the mouse over to that screen, I can see what is suppose to be the mouse moving around too. I have downloaded the latest ATI and Matrox drivers. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong as I've been stuck at this all day and would grateful of any help you could offer.

thanks
Kev

In BIOS->Integrated (Components or whatever), change the onboard video. It's probably set to auto or something like that. Change it to onboard (making the ATI primary).

I've look in the bios and cant find any options for this. There are only two pages in the Bios. I've tried all drivers now and still no luck. And quite offen it locks up hard while loading. I've updated to the latest bios A09 too and still no go.

Thanks Kev

What chipset? Is there anything like onboard sound? And are you sure don't see ANY settings pertaining to onboard video (ignore muy suggestions as to where the options should be).

If you system is kinda old, the onboard video may automatically be disabled when you but in another video card. If that is the case, there is nothing you will be able to do about it. Dell got smart with the GX110 line (and others), and allowed the onboard video to work in conjunction with any cards you may add.
