Dell Active Displayport adaptor problem

kerorek · Post by **kerorek** » 25 Oct 2009, 17:18

So.. I finally got my triple head set up running (Eyefinity). And everything works fantastic with one giant exception... Whichever monitor is connected to my Dell Active display port adaptor will randomly blankout in the middle of games. Sometimes it would go well over an hour without this problem and other times it will do it several times in a 10min period. i've tried different cables and changing the USB power settings with no luck. Anyone have any advice?? Thanks!

RMA your adapter.

Is there any way I can know for sure that the adaptor is bad? I'd hate to spend a week sending it in and another getting it back just to find out the monitors I have simply wont play nice.

mine have one and don't behave like that.

but I do notice it would black out and back in once in a while.

but I think that have more to do with me keep switching resolution/game.

but during reglar game play it works fine.

btw: if it blacks out and don't come back, just turn off and wait 2 seconds and turn back on the monitor
