Big Problem

[titus]

Okay I'm new to the surround gaming and wanted to give it a try. So I already had a triple screen setup but was on 3 of my video cards.

Monitors
Left: Asus VW246h
Center: AsusVK246h
Right: Asus VW246h

Single Display I can run them in 1680x1050 @ 55hz 57Hz 60Hz
But when I try the th2go it says out of range.

I unistalled everything
Installed Display Driver 182.50
Installed Beta PDSE

3x1680x1050 @ 55/57 - Didn't work

I unistalled everything
Installed Display Driver 182.50
Installed Latest PDSE

3x1680x1050 @ 55/57 - Didn't work

But I can run in 4320x900

I really need some help I want to get this working if not I'm just going to RMA it and stick with single display.

System Specs:
Mobo: Asus M4N82
Ram: 8gb
Video: 3x 9800 GTX+ 3way SLI
Driver: 182.50

It is not the displays it is the whole crappy Vista driver from NVidia. You can search through the (many many) threads on this subject, with lots of individual fixes but if the 182.5 and BETA PDSE don't work you are in trouble. But RMA would be a waste, maybe NVidia will fix their driver soon?

so what can i do in the mean time cause its pretty much a 300 paper weight i have tried for the past 15 hours ready through these forums and doing the same thing and still not working

I havent heard of someone whos correct setup didnt work under 182.5 drivers. As Mach1.9pants sayed you are in troubble.

You have Video: 3x 9800 GTX+ 3way SLI? To clearify the problem, disconnect two of this cards and run the matrox with your drivers on a single 9800 GTX. If this doesnt work, I dont know...but if, try do same with two cards on same procedur. Maybe its because of 3 cards.

tried that didnt work either

set this works but says custom setting failed but it sits at 5040x1050 and then when i clock ok goes back to 4320x900 so im getting 5040x1050 to work but its not saving these settings that its working with

any gurus out there know how to tweak real good

[titus]

pixel clock 273.4500 = fail

pixel clock 319.7500 = pass

319.7500 will not stay set nvidia says it failed the test but when it says that its runnin 5040x1050 and when i click ok it revets back to 4320x900. trying to find a way to keep this clock

[skipclarke]

Which ones got you working?

Depends for what, I used to be able to fix the 'test failed' crap by putting in a standard res. instead of native, not only has the test failed not been fixed in the 190.x versions but they actually managed to remove the fix I had found.

Now I can't create custom resolutions at all.

Hi titus ,
I managed to get my GTX280 to play ball with the 182.08 Niv driver. But lost the ability to get it to go again . I eventually tried the 180.48 and that was the one that still works for me :D

2 other things to keep your eyes open for are :
1/ Device Manager Section make sure there is only 1 Matrox Device and that the driver is the correct one - 1.0.0.4
2/ Try uninstalling the matrox drivers , do all the manual entry for the nividea card , run the test , see if it at least lets you run that driver test successfully . Then, when you're happy ....start on the matrox drivers .
It was the Beta that eventually worked with the 180.48.
I know my system is a bit different to yours , but it does show that the lastest niv driver is not always the best !
Hope this helps
