HI, I have these two cards in my system. Is it possible to let them run both ? I use HD5770 as primary, but Nvidia is presented with drivers and works also, but not together in boinc. How can I check and make both works at the same time ?
Thank you.

I use 6.10.18 boinc, 8.671.0.0 for ATI driver and 8.16.11.9107 for Nvidia on Windows7 64bit.

Same way as with two cards of the same make:

1. Extend your desktop over both videocards.
2. Attach a monitor to both videocards, or use a dummy VGA plug.
3. Use the <use_all_gpus> option in the cc_config.xml file.

See my CUDA/CAL FAQ for details on those.
