Different company's cards in the same PC

Title says it all. If I were to put n fx5200 PCI card in my rig would the drivers conflict or would it be ok?

I need a PCI card with dual monitor capability....cheap.

should be fine. I've run nVidia and ATI PCI cards together and it was fine. Now running SLI with two different cards would be a different story...

It's been done, but it's not always seemless. Heck, Toms Hardware was able to get both an nVIDIA PCI-E 6800 and an ATI PCI 850XT to run in the same computer, just had to do a lot of setup fun first.
