Hi, I have an ASUS G73JH-A2 notebook with the mobility 5870. On ATI's website, it says that the 5870 mobility supports eyefinity. The outputs on this laptop are HDMI and VGA. I have 2 Samsung SyncMaster T220 22" 1680 x 1050 LCD monitors. I have them hooked up as follows:

one HDMI to DVI adapter on laptop with DVI cord connected to display
one VGA straight from laptop to other display

I have tried 10.3a and 10.3b drivers, it appears that 10.3b notebook driver says that it is identical to 10.3a upon installation...
In desktop + displays in CCC, it only allows me to create profiles of 2x1 and 1x2. No monitors are 'extended'. There is always 1 monitor (notebook LCD, or one of 2 displays) that must be disabled. Whenever I right click on the disabled one and click duplicate, it then prompts which display to disable...

Is there any way I can run 3x eyefinity with laptop LCD in the middle and 2 monitors on the sides?

Thanks,

You're the first asking about this. I've always wondered how you would do Eyefinity on a laptop without three connections.

Perhaps your laptop is only able to output to one of the two external connections at a time? My motherboard had 2 outputs, but was only able to output to one at a time.

Are you unable to get all 3 displays working in extended mode or just unable to get them working in Eyefinity?

the laptop has no problem outputting to 2 displays at once. i can output to both monitors, but then the laptop LCD has to be disabled. I haven't tried getting all 3 working in extended mode. I'll give it a shot and post back here.

I also have the same laptop, with two 22 inch monitors I would like to setup using eyefinity. Was there any progress on finding this problem out of anybody that can throw some words of knowledge my way? Thanks

did you make any progress? does anybody know if there is a way to use multiple monitors on the asus g73jh for eyefinity? any help would be great

nope, unfortunately haven't made any progress. i don't think it's possible on this laptop.
