To my knowledge there are only a very few video cards that will work in tandem as you are trying to do. Those are usually made to be multimedia cards where you can use 4 or more screens.
I saw a lot of problems with the Nvidia 8500 GT and Windows 7 when I searched the internet. That tells me the card is not Windows 7 compatible as they say it is. It might be time to think about a different card and be sure to check around the internet on whatever you choose for good and bad on them.
In the meantime use one or the other but not both of those cards. If the Nvidia works then turn off the internal and go with that.

that's the problem now lol neither the internal one or the external one works. the internal is the 8200 the external is a 8500.. oh well I may just have to go get a new card. I'm trying to figure out how i got just the internal one to work for a short time. I just play around and practice on my desktop so its not the end of the world. thanks for the info on the windows 7 and 8500. do you know if its the same with the 8200?

Do a search on the internet for Nvidia 8200 with Windows 7 and see what you find.
