I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate. I was running 3 monitors on XP Pro with no problems. I have 1-26" Dell and 2-19" Gateways on ATI X-700 pro and ATI 9250 video cards (respectively). The X-700 runs with no problems. Vista does not detect the 9250 card which runs the 2 19". Does anyone know how to get the card to work on Vista?
I tried some other drivers, but they would not install. Anyone have any ideas?

The 9250 card is PCI
System is P4 3.4 Ghz, 1535 PC2700 memory.

I have Windows Vista Home Premium installed on my Gateway PC with the Radeon 9250 card and it runs great....EXCEPT...you cannot take advantage of the Vista Aero portion yet. My PC read the card right off the bat, it just warned me it may have an issue. I sure hope also that ATI soon makes a Vista driver for this card so I can use Aero. So if you want to install Vista, go right ahead with this card, just know Aero won't work yet. If you use Windowblinds at all, they help make your look a bit more pleasing than just the Vista default look.
