I suggest Installing Puppy 2x times f...

Well the cards are identical but they are TNT2's so more than likely I may not be able to do hardware acceleration if I set it up as an extended desktop. Well one of the Cards seems to need cleaning or something because it seems to blur colors out(as in bad streaks) and its not a driver issue. I'll ...

Gparted should be able to detect it. make sure that the item you have chosen in Gparted is it as it can only view one drive at a time.

I've installed Puppy 3.01 on an old 64MiB Computer so RAM isn't really and issue just leave the CD in.
