I can either get 1 monitor on each card working or 2 monitors on 1 card, can't get them all working together.
The cards are NVIDIA Geforce 210 1 x DVI 1 x VGA on each card, I've 'updated the driver software.
The system is used for monitoring various ground stations and just ticks away hardly used in anger

What I have found is that the W10 multi-monitor controls are a bit rubbish and using the Nvidia Control Panel to activate/retire secondary monitors is 100% effective.
The W10 system doesn't even detect a "sleeping" monitor, it's carp!

your best bet if you do want to modernise would be to upgrade to something that gives you all dvi outputs (gfx cards that is) and iirc there are a lot of older units that do it the 8600gt being one of the many cheap old cards that comes (from some manufacturers) with dual dvi outputs, that would then work with w10, although next time you think about doing the upgrade might I suggest you clone the drive of the current pc and use a second box to test it with, especially since your going to need to upgrade the monitors for it to work anyway /
