Hi all,

I have had my 19" monitor (one of the 2 surviving from my old TH set up) attached to my other PC but no doing much. So I thought I would use it with the new NVidia drivers as a 2nd monitor (2nd to the TH) and maybe be able to see my TeamSpeak2 server info and other stuff while playing games. Can it work? I have set the TH to the main SLI monitor in the NV Ctrl Panel, (disabled PhysiX, cos I don't have any games that use it!) and under the display settings tried to 'extend my desktop' to this monitor and set it to 1280x1024. But all I get is a blank 19" monitor...
Any thoughts from you guys who have used multi monitors? I didn't do it before until the multi-monitor SLI drivers arrived......

Cheers
M1.9P

Multiple screens is usually a breeze, as you said just enable the screen (ideally in dual head mode) and set the resolution and it should be fine. I've got a TH2Go + 17" setup at the moment and am on the newest drivers, so would assume you're having SLI issues.

Have you got the TH2Go and extra screen plugged into the same card? Frankly I'm stabbing in the dark as I've no SLI experience...

The bizarre thing is in the NV ctrl panel under display there should be a 'set up mulitple monitors' option, but on mine there is not....
The monitor is recognised by the NV CP 'cos under SLI it gives me the option to choose the TH or the 19" as the SLI display....


Stumped :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:
