Screen scrambled

Post by RickyD »

sometimes when i game, my two most right monitors in my 3x1 Landscape eyefinity setup are scrambled.
the right part of the image suddenly is on the left and vice versa. when i take a screenshot everything seems normal, but i also took a picture of it to show you guys.

the only way to get to use my computer normal again is if I restart it, but when you're gaming you really don't want to do that
why does my computer do this?

This could be related to the refresh rate, what monitors do you use?

Do you have a 7970/7950? Does this happen in 3d mode (games) only? Or only on the desktop (2d mode), if it only happens in 2d mode it could be caused by core/ memory clocks being set too low by ccc. There was a thread on here describing a similar problem. Cant find it but i saw it only about a month ago so maybe someone else can remember or you can hunt for it...

Here is some info on adjusting 2d clocks, its old ccc but may still be relevant...
