Problems running two gfx cards

[mcronix]

Hi there.
I just had a 32" HDTV delivered today. I plan to run this as the primary monitor for my computer and will be using a gf8600 GTS to run it. I also have two 19" w/s monitors which I have been running together off of another pci express gfx card.

I have an Asus M2N-SLIDELUXE Motherboard which has two pci express slots (1 at 16x and 1 at 8x). Obviously I am running the HDTV from the 16x port and it works great. The problem is when I try putting the other gfx card in (the 8x slot) then NONE of the screens have an input signal. Can someone help me to get these to work together?
Thanks in advance

My psu is old and sucks.
Could this be the problem?

Does the other card support 8x slot?

How do I check for this?
Its a 7600GT. I was running it from the 16x slot before so surely it should work in the 8x?
I've just a new 24pint PSU which should be more than capable of running this but it hasnt helped
Any ideas ?

Bump.

Can someone check if what I'm trying to do is possible. Can I run 2 different gfx cards together independently on this board? Would really appreciate it.

Thanks
