Nvidia Configure surround missing

Post by Fuglypump »

Really looking for help atm, i have just bought 3 22" monitors all the same Edge 10 , as i fancied something special for FSX or black ops / warcraft, however when i right click on my screen there is no option for surround configuration in 3d settings, ive used this setup before and it worked, but for the life of me no matter what i do i cant get configure surround to display, ive spoke to people from nvidia, they told me to uninstall all the drivers using a program called DDU, and then install drivers version 340.52 and that said that should do the trick, but still nothing, i'm at my wits end to be honest, any help would be appreciated...

Best regards Dean

i'm currently running a small AMD (tm) 4100 quad core 3.6ghz , 8gb ram
1tb main drive
Geforce GTX 750 1gb DDR5
Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

the last ime i remember running multi screens was about 7-8 years ago, and i can remember doing the bezel's
but i've not been using pc's much last few years , only recently started back up again, so i bought a little system for cheap, but needed a new card so thats what was recommended

Okay, so the 3 Monitors work fine in Extended /Mirrored mode ? You have a signal on all 3 ?

in that case someone with more experience on nVidia might help you further :)

i can setup all 3 so u can move left to right and vice versa...
the problem is i cannot get the *surround* option in mt nvidia control panel to extend my displays, it simply will not install, i dont know if its my graphics card, or my software, when i have looked at similar problems, in the control panel, it says, configure Surround, PhysX in 3d settings, all i got it *set*.......

What does the NVIDIA Control panel tell you when you click on "Span displays with Surround" and click on "Configure..."?

Can you make a screenshot of what exactly isn't working?

That looks like the Control panel is bugging out. If a fresh driver install doesn't change anything, maybe a new windows install will.
