[SOLVED] Help needed adding a 2nd Nvidia GPU (MSI GT 710) to go with my EVGA RTX 3070

[Kood Garma]

I installed an MSI GT 710 second GPU, but I'm currently getting the following Device Manager error under Display Adapters for it. Right after I first installed it, Nvidia driver was installed for the GT 710 and it was working, but then my EVGA RTX 3070 was no longer being recognized so I reinstalled the Nvidia driver from EVGA site. Now the 3070 is working again, but the 710 is getting the error. Not sure what to do next. I think it has to do something with the Nvidia drivers, but I am not sure how to fix it.

I want to use the MSI GeForce GT 710 attached via PCIE 4.0 x1_2 slot to add another HDMI port, since I've already used all four ports (3x DisplayPort, 1x HDMI) on my EVGA GeForce RTX 3070 FTW3 ULTRA GAMING attached via PCIe 4.0/3.0 x16_1 slot to an ASUS PRIME X570-P motherboard running an AMD Ryzen 7 3800X CPU running Windows 10.

Thx in advance!

Thx but I'm trying to add another HDMI port, I'm not trying to convert an existing port. Is there a second GPU that will work with the 3070?

You cannot have 2 NVIDIA GPU drivers loaded and active at the same time, in any operating system.

GT 1030 is still supported with RTX 3xxx drivers

SOLVED: Returned the 710 and picked up a 1660 Ti to run both HDMI touchscreens out of that, and the DisplayPort monitors out of the 3070 and all is good. Thx!
