Cloning When using non eyefinity resolutions

Post by houkouonchi »

I am using a game that only supports 1920x1200 (It will not run at higher eyefinity resolutions). The problem is that when the game starts using 1920x1200 instead of outputing on a single output on the video card its outputting on all four outputs (I am using an eyefinity 5 vid card). Is there anyway to disable this behavior so when not using eyefinity 'grouped' resolutions it does not clone the image on all ports and only outputs to a single port?

Disable the eyefinity single large screen (sls), they will be cloned which is what you see. Then you need to extend the monitors in ccc.

The problem is that I need the single large screen (spanning) so that I only have a single desktop. The problem is that when running non grouped modes I don't want them to be cloned. It is really piss-poor if the display group has to be un-created every single time that I want to get single monitor output?

Also extended desktop almost never works with the CCC. I select it and it just goes back (same with windows 7 screen resolution panel).

Extended Desktop has always worked for me over the years and with various ATI cards and also various Windows OSes. It works well for me now in Windows 7 x64, too.

As for switching between modes, just create a Profile in CCC for each setup you wish to use. I created the Profile and then put a shortcut on the Desktop. It's a simple matter of just Double Clicking on that profile to switch between the setups you want to use. I have my Eyefinity as well as a Single Display profile that I use.

This is correct. 10 secs between modes.
