Fix for inability to run in 5040x1050 - Official Thread

Another baffled 3x1680 by 1050 Triplehead2go user here.

I've got the display across all 3 screens, but only at 2400x600. Attempts to 2 higher either give me a scrambled single display or a blank screen.

I'm using an 8800 Ultra on XP32 SP3 with 3 Dell 22" 1680x1050 display and a TH2G ...

Fix for inability to run in 5040x1050 - Official Thread

I am running Vista 64 ... while the patch worked (I got the two new resolutions in FSX) it caused a problem with the FSX display. Tech support says they are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it... or something like that.

Has abybody tested triple 1680 X 1050 with FSX ?

I also bought TH2G Digital few days ago when I heard about 16:10 resolutions. I already had a 22" Acer AL2223W and I added two Samsung 2243BWX.

They all support 57Hz but the Samsungs always remind me to put the optimal resolution of 1680x1050@60Hz when I change the resolution or I go back to ...

gatsat,

so which driver did you roll back to exactly?


I believe I rolled back from 177 to 175. I am not in front of that PC right now, but I am almost certain that was the case.

FSX and TH2GO

Hi gatsat,

If you're getting the 3x1680x1050 in Windows but not in FSX, it's likely because your monitor inf file has not been updated to report Th2Go.

Look in your display settings to see if your monitor is listed as "plug and play" or "GXM". If it is detected as plug and play and not ...

If I missed your type of monitor, sorry my bad.

Re: reply

I've heard there are still some problems/issues for triple 22" monitors with the TH2Go. There's nothing you can do about that for now but lower your reslution to the second highest available. Autogen is an FSX setting and is not related to the TH2Go.

Ok, I guess the next resolution is 4320 x ...

Re: reply

Always run at the native resolution. Just lower autogen for smoother fps.

That's the thing. My monitor's native is 1680x1050@60 ... the TH2GO will do 5040x1050@57 The monitors throw the error message and I don't see a setting for 5040x1050 in FSX anywhere.

Is the autogen a setting in FSX ...
