So when i create an eyefinity group i can have my desktop span across all 3 monitors and play games just fine etc

But what i REALLY want is have 3 monitors in extended mode, like each its own screen. I can do it with 2 monitors just fine by hitting windows+P and selecting extended, but then my 3rd monitor goes off....

Im sure its something simple im missing. Im on a HD 5850

Please help!

Thanks!

What you need to do is extend all three monitors via screen resolution (right click on desktop) -> after that switch to single monitor (win+p -> computer only) and then switch back to extended by selecting extend. If that doesn't, please tell us about what you already have tried.
