I'm getting strange distortion when bezel management is set to 70 pixels or more. It's just the left screen, and does it on multiple resolutions, drivers and screens. Can anyone with a similar rig confirm bezel management at >68 without distortion? Currently on 177.35 but also does it on 177.41.

Forgot the images:



Note it's not just squashed, there's a black border on the right too :?

Yes, I get the exact same glitch :( except I can go all the way to 74 pixels ! :P Needless to say the display is broken on the desktop and in games as well, not only on the Bezel Management screen. Pretty annoying since
1) I really like this feature, 3D scenes feel broken and unnatural to me without proper Bezel Management
2) my new 16:10 monitors have much thicker bezels than my former 5:4s

Currently running forceware 177.41 under Vista64, but it seems pretty obvious to me that this is a TH2G issue. I'll give it a try on my Ati rig tomorrow anyway...

Well printscreen doesn't squish so I think it's fair to say what the graphics card is outputting is A-Ok. Here's hoping Matrox are aware of the issue and working on a fix. I need more like 160 pixels to be happy.

I found the same thing as well. I think I got to 70 as well.

This issue makes me regret bothering in the first place...I use bezel management in all games/movies.

While we're on niggles...does anyone else lose desktop divider settings after each reboot?

Not me but I do get an annoying Matrox dialogue box every time
I start up.

And some programs ignore the divider.
