First of all, please check your spelling ! Your post is really hard to read. :oops:
Secondly TH2G can only drive 3x 1680x1050 max... and with a Radeon, maybe even only 3840x1024.

Did you run Powerdesk GXM Wizard to setup the display ?

Just wondering, why not just run eyefinity? You will need an active single-link display port adapter, which will set you back about $30 off of newegg (or similar online retailer).

yeah, that's true...

My advice try outputting 3840x720 or 4080x 768 or 4098x768. Try it through powerdesk first, then try it though windows display utility.

Not according to the Matrox Website....

http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/th2go/

Supports a maximum resolution of 5760x1080 (3x 1920x1080)1, 2 across three monitors; displays attached to TripleHead2Go must run at the same resolution

True... and I didn't know that a month ago.

Nope, you must connect TH2G first. If you can't see the tray icon, you can start GXM from the start menu, or explore your Matrox installation folder to find it. You can also change your resolution to your native single-screen one before you launch the Wizard...
