Bezel comp when using a display with vga?

If you use any VGA connections is bezel compensation always disabled?

I have a Dell 2007wfp 20", and a Dell 2209wa 22".

As is, I already can't do bezel comp with 2 monitors as ATI sees the different sizes, even though the res are the same.

If I get the Sapphire DP>VGA adapter will I be blocked from using bezel management even if ATI loosens these stupid restrictions?

I'm thinking of selling the 2209wa and looking for a pair of 2007wfp's.

Short answer: No.

I'm using three identical ViewSonic 24 inch LCDs and a DP->VGA adapter. Bezel compensation is working flawlessly here. The restriction is due to the difference in your panels.

Do you have 2 connected by VGA and 1 by DP > VGA? That'sw hat I have on 3 identical monitors and I don't seem to have the option to config the bezel management (cat 10.7).

You need to install the drivers for your screen, so you get above 1600x1200 on the DP -> VGA screen first. If the resolution ain't available for windows, it ain't available for Eyefinity either. :)

I cant find any drivers for my screen, I just have the Generic PnP Driver installed for all 3.

No, I have two connected using DVI -> DVI; and one using DP -> VGA. My screens are all identical.

You might try Removing all the monitors from the Windows Device Manager and then reboot and let Windows re-detect the connected ones. You might also go into Device Manager and do a Driver Update for the monitors and see if Windows detects any newer drivers. Other than than, check the manufacturer for any specific drivers.

I turned on my PC this morning and its sorted itself out and I can now confirm I have bezel management working with a Sapphire DP > VGA adapter and 2 DVI, all3 identical monitors. I can tell that the VGA monitor has slightly different colour to the 2 connected by DVI.
