I finally fiured why could not run @ 5040x1050.
it appears that my middle monitor was the reason why i couldn't.
middle monitor was using a vga connection and a dvi adaptor.
my other 2 monitrs had dvi outs plus vga.

im running windows 7 and i have it set to 4320x900 but have not goten it to run 5040x1050. so what i mean was that proper drivers maybe coming out for windows 7 . sorry for the confusion.

Hello everyone. i recently emailed matrox support asking if windows 7 support is going to be offered. they replied 2 days later saying to check back in 2 weeks. can it be true? the silver lining on the horizon? please i do hope so! :D

could it be that i have two different monitors?
would that cause this?

any word from matrox and windows 7 support?

hey suiken_2mieu looks like you were right. got the game to work. not in 5040x1050 but instead in 3840x1024. atleast it worked. i tried to install the older drivers but i think i messed that up. actually i messed both instructions up. i did what suiken_2mieu but it sort of worked. then in a ...

Thanks for all the tips!
