Read a post on another forum yesterday. Comment indicated using a spare video card for a phxis card if you're using a Radeon as a primary video card.

I'm building a rig and thinking of using a Radeon (first time for that) as primary but I've got several left over GeForce cards that I can use.

Is this possible and how is it done?

Thanks in advance.

First and foremost, it can only be done on Win7 and WinXP. Vista won't work, and XP is extremely difficult to get to work. So if you don't have 7, don't bother right now.

the post in the middle of the page has the files attached as well as simple instructions- the rest is in the hack's ReadMe.
