I have a Foxconn A690GM2MA-8KRS2H it has onboard x1200 graphics, so i went out and bought a 2600 pro for it. Now it seems the 1200 uses irq 10 and the 2600 pro also uses irq 10, and i boot up and i get an error in windows event viewer that it can't assign an irq for it. I disabled the onboard graphics in bios and the 1200 doesn't show up anywhere. This is on vista ultimate. I currently have the card in an asus a8n sli , and it's running just fine in there on xp, and i've also had it in a asrock 939sli 32 with xp runnin just fine. so if anyone has any hints they would be greatly appreciated.

I believe they share an IRQ on purpose- it is done to facilitate SurroundView. Is there an option in BIOS anywhere to disable/enable SurroundView? I know it's there on the Asus M2N VM and HDMI, and I believe the Gigabyte MA69GM S2H has it as well.

yes it's listed there and i believe i tried it with it enabled but i still got the same erorr, vista wouldn't even boot, i could only get in with safe mode.
