Widescreen Gaming Forum

Holy flashing trees batman! Fix one thing and break another. For some reason now when in triple wide, my distant trees are flashing like crazy. Seems the only way to fix it is to play in window mode. I went from window mode to full screen in game once and it worked perfect with no flashy, but now no ...

yep you are right ^^^

the only catch is that even after I switched the monitor cables so the center monitor was the primary connector on video card #1, it still didn't change the output monitor until I reinstalled the drivers.

Other than that, I've got it working now so thanks for the ...

hmm, that's a possibility also, since I'm using the 260.99 drivers. I'm going to reinstall these and see if it is the same, if so, I'll revert back to the 258.96 and report back.


thanks

hmm, well i could have sworn i've read somewhere that someone has used the matrox gxm utility on an eyefinity setup to choose the primary monitor maybe? could be wrong?

also, the thing that rubs me most is this, here is a pic i cropped from the end of the nvidia wizard showing resolutions and ...

So I KNOW this has been covered before but I am having a heck of a time finding it... please don't yell at me. I had it working in triplehead2go for years by selecting it, but ive since dropped it for the nvidia surround for native display rez.

I've got tri-sli, Im running 2d surround for most ...

Working:

Acer X243Wbd, OS reports 5040x1050@59hz, windows 7 ultimate x64, multiple different graphics drivers and still working

(couldn't ever get these monitors to go 5040x1050 under windows xp)

Ah, I see. It makes me wonder why the triplehead2go has anything to do with dx9 and dx10 with regards to different resolutions, anyway thanks for the information.

So is the only practical way to get the full feature set to use one of Ati's new 5000 series cards with eyefinity? These will run ...

Hi, sorry if this is a double post, I know a lot of topics have been covered in this forum, and I've done a few searches but didn't quite find what I was looking for.

Here's the scenario, I am on windows 7 x64, just loaded it yesterday, and have all drivers (that i know of) up to date ...

confirmed IW has broke the widescreen yet again. This time though, instead of just not working, it exits my game with an error... :cry:

well, after some fiddling, I figured it out. Since my gtx295 is a two board sli card in one slot, I have an option in my nVidia control panel called "enable multi-gpu mode" and If I disable this mode, it runs all 4 monitors fine... but I'm assuming it is only using one gpu to run the triple span ...

ya, I've tried the HDMI to no avail. I'm beginning to think that since the DTH2GO uses a dual-link dvi cable, it is using both links of the gtx295, and therefore there are no more links left to drive a seperate monitor. In your situation, you are running two, dual-link graphics cards, which ...

so... are you implying that I do need a secondary graphics card? or are you saying it is a driver related conflict? or are you saying that I need to implement some sort of soft th2go? I'm confused :)

So I've posted in other threads but haven't gotten any replies. And I've read where you can use one dual output video card to drive a digital triple head 2 go (dth2go), and use the remaining output on the video card to drive a 4th monitor.

I have a dual dvi output card(gtx295) and it is ...

I have a very similar setup as mentioned, no SLI mobo, but I have a digital triple head 2 go, and a gtx 295 running it. I just got a 4th monitor, but when i plug it into the remaining dvi socket on the video card, I can't get it to come on. After trying a few times, it seems both of the links on the ...

Yes, i have recently installed the 2.04.00.011 gxm suite and ran the wizard and it does the same thing.

As an update, after fiddling with lots of settings, I've found that if I switch the color depth to 16bit from 32bit, and then choose 5040x1050, all three screens come back on the zoomed ...

Ok, so I uninstalled my vid drivers and gxm, installed the 182.05 new beta's and then the new gxm, and its doing exactly the same thing. I'm not sure where to go at this point.

no, i haven't tried 182.05 drivers, i went directly to nvidias site after getting the 295 card and got the latest, which are 181.22 i believe. I will try this and report back this afternoon.

oh sorry, its winxp 32bit, i forgot that bit! I just havent seen another problem quite like this.

So, I've been reading and reading on this forum, and can't seem to find help with what I'm experiencing.

Here's what Ive got:

gtx295, using nvidia 181.22 (newest currently available)
core 2 e6700 @3.0
Dell 2408 (x1)
Acer 243wbd (x2)
digital triple head to go

I bought the Acers ...
