Triplehead2go digital edition.

Ive been trying to go to 5040x1050 with no luck.

Ive followed the directions on http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/support/gxm/windows/th2go/digital/howto1/

Step 7 on this page shows I should have the new resolutions available. I dont.


Running Vista 64
2 Acer h233h and 1 Acer H243h
Ive made sure my monitors show up as TripleHead2go

2 GeForce GTX 285's


Am I doing something wrong? Drivers not updated? Bad version of Vista?

I dont have any issues running my games in 3840x800@60Hz, 16 bpp

Thanks guys

Are you using the Beta GXM ? Its necessary running Vista and a 200 series Nvidia GPU :

i just tried it with no luck..


I dont want anyone to confuse that I have the option to go 5040 and its just not working in games..

When I follow the instructions on the update page I dont even have the option.
