updated my Th22g but 3x1680x1050 no show..

Post by geniv2 »

just got my 3x 24" monitor and update the firmware on the th2g.

I goto the Edit mode on the matrox powerdesk program.

the highest triplehead resolution I can see is 1360x768 :(

the new high res widescreen modes doesn't even show up :(

can anyone offer a suggestion?

it seems to work now at least from within windows resolution switching.

but from within the matrox powerdesk it doesn't seem to show up.

form windows I switch to 5040x1050 part of the screen is cut off
like the bottom taskbar is cutoff :(

Bad scaling maybe ? How does 1680x1050 look (single monitor res) ?

it looks fine. at single 1680x1050

at 5040x1050 I also noticed something strange.

the bezell area between my center and R screen...

it seems to have a "bezel management" kinda bug.. my BM is disabled

when I move my mouse from the center to the R there's a "gap" in it.

but from the center to Left there's no gap it just goes to the L monitor.

and also menened the bottom like 100 pixel where the taskbar is is cut off.



at 4320x900 everything seems fine though

damn it gets worst.
actually the most resolution I can get is 3x1360x768 according to the PowerDesk.

even though I can select 5040x1050 and 4320x900 in windows desktop
they are just scaled down to 4080x768 :(


PowerDesk doesn't show the new high res widescreen resolution that I'm suppose to get :(

maybe that's the problem and why things looks funky in 5040x1050

the 3 LCDs I got are
2x Dell E248WFP (connected via analog) my L and R monitor
1x Acer P241WaD connected via DVI


EDITED UPDATE: I read all the treads and none of the mentioned worked.

some people mentioned that it might be an acer monitor.. I got an acer too.

hope its's not that. but I will be getting 3x Soyo Soyo DYLM24E6 24" Widescreen LCD in a week I think

actually its probeby the monitor not liking the 57hz refresh rate. i have 3 FP202W monitors 2 are v3 and one is v1, on the v1 at 57hz refresh i get sections of monitor in stripes almost were text is fuzzy and if i use bezel managment i get a flattening on the inner side of that monitor about an 8th of an inch in the image is distorted, but not on the other 2 v3's... hope that helps.

Quite a few of us have the bezel management error. I have logged it with Matrox so hopefully a fix will come....
