Well Vista 64bit doesn't work with the new drivers... hopefully it will be fixed in the near future :?

Just a shot in the dark here but:

As far as I know a monitor driver is only 1 .inf file so maybe you could copy the .inf from a known working res. gxm install.

Uninstall that version. Install latest version of GXM with latest known working video drivers and use the .inf copied instead of one included with latest GXM?

yeah I tried. The new inf file gives me the 'out of range error' what ever driver when I select 5040. The old one just won't let you select 5040.

Maybe you could contact the person behind those omegadrive ati drivers, a wizard at modding .infs for drivers from what I've seen, maybe could tell what/why those don't fully work.

And with the new BETA big bang 2 (which doesn't have multi monitor support but big frame rate improvements) exactly the same.
Normal GXM won't do 5040; the new trial GXM will but gives out of range error :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Matrox has offered me remote control so I will be up at stupid hours sometime soon (NZ/Canada time dif) and see how it goes

They offered me remote control too and I'm not about to let them! Thanks for your efforts though...sounds like you're the only one actively 'bothering' them into doing something, which isn't impetus they should require to get on with it. All they need do is invest $1k in hardware and the problems would become immediately apparent to them.

Yeah they were on for about 4 hours last time I did it (from 1am to 5am +++YAWN++) when the firmware update to put the single screen in the centre porked my unit.

But this should get it sorted and we really need it to work ith the latest drivers, they offer a significant increase in many games

I'm curious, what do they use for remote control?

Can't remember. It was an exe file, not logmein or anything. I'll tell you latter, I hope

errghhh 6am :(
