How to set up and use two video cards at the same time.

I have HP Pavilion a6150d desktop under Windows XP SP3 PC. My goal is to be able to use the integrated video card and GeForce 220 video card I just buy at the same time.

The integrated video card and GeForce video card (connected to the PCI-E) are installed and usable, but the problem is that I think that my computer cannot detect a video at a time card, so I can't use 2 monitors at the same time.  The video only card detects my computer is what I chose as a primer in the BIOS. When you go to the Device Manager display adaptors I can only find an available video card and that's regardless of Setup as primary in the BIOS.

My GeForce 220 have VGA, DVI and HDMI display connectors, but I don't have that VGA cables. So my only option at the moment is to use my video card GeForce with band single VGA connector and integrated everyone to use my two monitors.

I hope someone can help me without spending more money...

"You're not going to be able to use the graphics card integrated Intel and PCIe x 16 graphics card at the same time."

Thanks Frank, this already answered my question, you help me already by saving my time searching for the fix (since there is NO solution), although it won't save my money I like always your quick response and your support. My monitor is HPw1907 with a DVI connector, so I'll just buy a DVI cable. My other monitor LCD SHARP that have a HDMI and VGA connector so I'll just use the VGA cable in this one.

So I guess that my simple goal is not achievable using HP Pavilion a6150d. I love HP more than Dell, but it's doable in Dell, so I hope that HP will have way on how to make this thing work in the future.

  • How to run two 'County of buffered edge' using two different counters at the same time?

    Hello

    I try to use two counters at the same time count the TTL pulses for a fixed period (lets say 10 ms). I have the card PCI-6251 and PCI-6601. I am currently using PCI 6601 as counters and running a self updated the ' stamped edge County - reset.VI. Here, I have attached my VI.

    Now, during the execution of this VI, I get an error saying "error-200251 occurred at Task.vi:4 DAQmx Start" and the possible reasons are, "measures: no USB or DMA channels in loose ends are available.»

  • Is it possible to see or read two video tracks at the same time?

    I have the video shot with two cameras at the same event.  If I took the video and put it in a sequence, say video1 video2, how can I watch two channels simultaneously so I can edit them?  I tried to use the multiple camera monitor and have this show video1, watching the video2 in the right panel, but it works very well.  I mean, that the multiple camera monitor does not play at the same time.  Instead, he stops, so when I play the other monitor is it still until I have stop it.  Then, it "catches up".  If I play the multi-monitor, the other is motionless until I have stop the monitor multi-cam.  Then, someone has a better solution that I can use where they both play at the same time?

    BTW, my hardware is new and I have a processor 6-core i7 - 3930K with 16 GB of memory, so I don't think that the problem is with my hardware is not not enough to properly run the Agency 5.0.

  • Can I use two cards at the same time on the same computer?

    Hello

    I have two graphics cards, one is integrated, i.e. HD 2500, Intel and the other is dedicated, i.e. Nvidia Geforce GT620. My question is that can I use both at the same time on the same PC. Whenever I try to connect via a VGA cable (per processor) and DVI (via graphic card) at the same time, the screen goes black and when I take off the DVI cable, the screen will return. When I connect the DVI again after log on, there is just the theme of Windows and folders that I opened all get reduced. When I disconnect the DVI cable once again, I opened the folder displays again.
     
    I want to make use of both integrated and dedicated graphics card, I read on the internet that two graphics cards give a performance gain. Also, I'm a gamer. But in time, I bought my PC, I had no knowledge about computers. I want to use two graphics cards. Please tell me a way by which I can use two graphics cards at the same time without the problem described above.

    Yes, you can use two cards graphics, combined to boost performance. But it depends on a condition: the two (or more) cards must be of the same brand. To make it clearer, you can use two or more NVIDIA graphics (thanks to SLI technology) or AMD graphics (with CrossFireX technology, supports up to four graphics card in a single PC).

    But, a mixture of graphics cards of different brand, as NVIDIA and AMD or NVIDIA and Intel or AMD and Intel or NVIDIA, AMD and Intel, can not be used for SLI or CrossFireX.

  • How to take snapshots of two usb camera at the same time

    Hello

    I have a project where I have to take still photos of two usb camera at the same time repeatedly and save the in a particular direcltory. I am received using a camera by using "Camera Grab vi", but I can't make it work with 2 cameras, I use the flat sequence and 2 "Camerra Grab vi: with particular camera in a sequence, but each time when I run the program I get only pic of a camera, its seems a camera dominates the other.»

    Please is it possible to use the two camera simultaneously. Attached are the snapshot of my vi.

    Thank you

    Ankit G

    Looks like you are using the same reference at the same time grabbing the camera. The two camera snaps happen but the second camera clamp is written on the first so it seems alone is slam. Try to run the VI executiong highlighted arbitrary mode (select icon icons four bulb to the right of the button run on the schema). This will allow you to see the data stream. In order to get both of these Snap you'll need separate references. You can try to watch one of our examples in the example Finder OR give you some direction (LabVIEW > help > find examples > Browse tab > Input and Output material > IMAQdx > high level > Snap.vi). You can break the two cameras at the same time if you just copy this code and double of the code.
    (Note: If you change the examples, always save as copy in another location so that you do not save on the packed example)

  • Insertion of records in two different tables at the same time?

    Hello everyone, I have question about inserting records in two different tables at the same time, I'm looking for is by the way a unique id, which is created in the first statement insert to the second insert statement. Example of this problem:

    < cfquery name = "addRecords1" datasource = 'test' >

    Insert Into Table1 (name, Date, age)

    Values (< cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_char" value = "#arguments.) "Name # ' >.

    < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = 'cf_sql_date' value = '#arguments. "Date # ' >.

    < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_int" value = "#arguments. Age #"(>); "

    Select SCOPE_IDENTITY() as RecID;

    < / cfquery >

    < cfquery name = "addRecords2" datasource = 'test' >

    Insert into Table2(Company,City,Date,ID)

    Values (< cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_char" value = "#arguments.Company #" >,)

    < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_char" value = "" #City # ">,"

    < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = 'cf_sql_date' value = "" #Date # ">,"

    ( < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_int" value = "How to pass RecID to insert in this table?" >).

    < / cfquery >

    In this example, I'm inserting records in table 1 and creation of IDENTITY SCOPE as RecId. I would like to pass this id and insert it in my table 2. This Id, I'll use in my second table as an identifier. If anyone knows anything about this please let me know. Thank you.

    Thanks in advance.

    There are many ways to achieve this. We can be to use the background image for the application. Other means may be to use various containers (Panel, canvas etc with background pictures) to get this look. Think of it in HTML view. How you can use the div tags to your page layout, you can use various containers of Flex to your page layout.

  • Trigger two FPGA instances at the same time

    I have a basic FPGA code that transmits the bits of data on a serial (RS-485) bus, the code is written so that it expects in the first State of a machine to States in a single-cycle timed loop.  After a certain trigger, he begins to read a FIFO containing data and sends the data on a line of Tx.  It does this until all bits are send and then it goes back to the first State to wait for the next trigger.  The relaxation is necessary because windows must fill out first before the FPGA FIFO can start sending.

    I need two instances of this code runs, because I have two buses of com (one is redundant).  So I use the FPGA code as a Subvi and I wrote a main FPGA vi to call two separate instances of the Subvi in parallel.  A regular window vi wrote on the FIFO for bed FIFO for Rx and Tx.  No problems so far.

    The thing is I start two transmissions in 200nS of each other (Yes, nanoseconds).  Windows will write two FIFO in parallel, but the timing is 4uS apart, too long.  I tried implementing a Boolean flag in the Subvi FPGA, but windows can not write directly on the control of Subvi.  FPGA won't allow (the Write function is grayed out).  I tried to use a FIFO for a flag, but the problem is a race condition.  One of the instances is first read FIFO and he destroy.  The other can't read.  I need a common trigger point to be used by the two instances of Subvi.

    My final solution was to use a memory in the Subvi FPGA and digital control in the main FPGA vi.  Windows write in numerical order, it may because the control is in the main FPGA vi.  Inside the main FPGA, I run a timed loop that looks for digital to be zero.  If so, it writes the value into the location of the memory used by the Subvi FPGA.  After awhile, the principal wrote a zero back to memory to prevent the Subvi is restarted, as well as to write a zero for digital to reset.  This repeats, waiting for windows to write in digital again for the next transmission.

    I had to do it this way because sometimes I want to pass on the bus, and sometimes just one or the other.  Numeric values are used to determine which to pass on.  Now, the transmissions are starting to almost exactly at the same time, 1 or 2 nanoseconds apart.  But the trigger process seems very silly to me.  I was wondering if there is a better solution.  I'm pretty new to FPGA.

    tbob wrote:

    Basically, I did the same thing using FPGA memory.  Windows I am writing for a digital control that resides inside the main FPGA vi.  In the main FPGA, I write in the memory.  Inside the Subvi FPGA, I read the brief and decode the value to use either one or the other or both buses.  After fool with it for awhile, because reading Memeory needs to use a shift register (probably because it takes a whole cycle of clock), I had to work.  The two bus trigger at the same time.  I guess it's not really important if I use a FIFO or if I use the memory.  The main problem is that I write Windows at the hand of FPGA, then the hand of FPGA for the Subvi FPGA.  Then the time is right for what is the Subvi is.

    There are some advantages to the use of two FIFO on your approach.  First of all, you don't have the change of register for the memory location.  Secondly, we should not worry that VI is responsible for compensation to the memory location, or do, you run the risk that one of your subVIs run twice, or not at all, if the memory is not erased at the right time.  Perhaps most important, you'll save yourself space on the FPGA because you will not need arbitration - the additional code that is added when two parts of the FPGA try to access the same resource at the same time.  In your case, both instances of the Subvi access the memory block at the same time, so the FPGA compiler adds additional logic to avoid conflict.  If only read you the memory block in one place and just write it in one place (reading and writing can be different loops where subVIs) there is no need for arbitration.  Using two FIFOs, you can keep independent and avoid the conflict resolution code.  See the help for the "arbitration" for more details.

    What is raid? A large number of people I know use raids.

    RAID 1 (mirroring) is not a backup solution. RAID 1 uses two or
    Several readers, each one duplicate of the other, to provide redundancy,
    no backup. It is used in situations (almost always inside)
    companies, not in homes) where any city cannot be tolerated.
    because the way it works is that if a disk fails the other takes
    more seamlessly.

    Although some people thing of RAID 1 as a backup technique, it is
    what it is, because it is subject to a simultaneous loss of the
    original and many of the main dangers facing the mirror
    your data - serious power, close to the lightning seeds, virus
    attacks, stolen computer, etc. Most companies that use RAID 1
    also have a solid plan of external backup in place.
