how are you using two graphics cards at once on a pc? the one in your specs is not listed for the newer, ultra-high performance gaming rigs that use two cards. typically, if you have one graphics card that support dual-monitors, you go to your graphics settings and select which monitor you want to display what.

i'm pretty sure you're right, xomblei. and for future reference, it's better to go back and edit your last post (when it's the last post in a forum) than post again 4 minutes later.
