What do you want this for Video Mirroring or to set up monitors that display a portion of the screen?

One possibility is to make sure that your are on a fixed resolution and refresh rate that both of video cards can support. If they are on a resolution or refresh rate that the video card can't handle, it won't even get you a screen.

Another possibility is that the video cards have incompatible technology, especially when they are made by two different companies. I have heard a lot about incompatibility with some games and multiple video cards.

I really wish I could help you more, but I haven't encountered a problem like this before.

I want basically one desktop on two moniters - one per video card. As for the refresh rate, the secondary card is never actually in working mode, so you can't change any display properties or such for the problematic card. You're going a bit further than where the problem is.
