need 2 nvidia drivers?

I have on my (fairly recent) motherboard a GeForce 7025 chip which drives the display and now needs the 304.xx legacy driver. But I also have installed a new GT 640 PCIe card which I am using exclusively for GPGPU programming. It needs the updated nvidia driver.

On the surface, it looks like I need to have both drivers -- the default one and the 304.xx -- installed, since I don't want to plug the display into the new card.

Is it possible to have both drivers? If so, how do I do it? Thanks for any help!

Doubt it's possible, but you should ask at the nvidia forum.
