Hey Everyone,

Long time reader first time poster, I have built my setup and enjoying it. Other than desktop management it works well.

Has anyone had any success in switching between surround and windows displays? My system locks up for a about 2-5 minutes while doing this with blank screens?

Also if anyone has any questions about running 29" monitors in surround or screenshot request happy to oblige..

Cheers,
Trojan

I'm not a nVidia Surround user, but I would really like to see 3 of those in surround. I've done some 7680x1080 screenshots and gameplay, but it looks strange on 30"rs.

Do you mean switching between a single large surface Nvidia Surround to running in an extended desktop? I find that even in Surround, the desktop runs wells very well as a simulated extended desktop, but the easiest way I have found to switch to a true extended desktop is using Windows-P and selecting Extend for extended desktop and Projector Only (don't know why it chooses that one) for Nvidia Surround.
