Video Card not Working - Device cannot start (Code 10) ?

Im using Windows 2003 Server as my workstation PC :P Anyway accoridng to Device Manager's Display Adapters I have installed 3dfx Voodoo3 PCI card, NVidia Geforce4 MX 440 AGP card, and a ATI mach64 CT PCI.



The Voodoo and Geforce4 are working just fine and Im able to use 2 monitors but now im getting greedy. I want 3 monitors and so ATI mach64 was plugged in. Unfortunately Im seeing the classic (!) yellow icon next to the listing anf the Device status reads: This device cannot start. (Code 10). Under Resources tab it just states "This deivce isnt using any resource because it has a problem".



Any ideas on how to get this 3rd PCI video card to work so that i can use 3 monitors? I've already tried several ATI mach64 drivers without luck.|||CHeck the IRQ to see if there is a conflict with another device. You can find this by right clicking the item in Device Manager, then Properties - Resources Tab.



If there is a conflict, it is usually listed at the bottom. You should be able to change the IRQ to another UNUSED number to alleviate this problem.
