Don't really know if this is an issue or not.......

If i have the bezel management enabled,it brings the right hand side of the right screen & the left hand side of the screen in about 50mm ?

Is this how its meant to be ?

Well... yes. With BM you don't get a bigger picture (i.e more pixels), there's actually less of the visible area : some get "hidden behind" the bezels. Obviously not designed for desktop use, this is a great feature for games.

Set it up with a hot key, so you can quickly change when you're on your desktop. You can even hotkey in a game, anytime! It''s gold.

Very handy with the hotkey in games,but some games won't allow you to use it......

Also my monitors......Acer V223W will accept and display the resolution 5040 x 1050 @ 57Hz,but for some reason the taskbar is just off the bottom of the screen.

I can just see the top of it ?.........what is the way to sort this out ?

Hmm, according to our monitors list, in 1680x1050@57Hz the V223W may actually display only 1024 pixel lines at a time... so your taskbar is hidden just below your monitors' lower bezel, although you can probably navigate it blind with your mouse. Same thing for your HUD in games I suppose. I'm afraid there's not much you can do about it. :?

Thanks for th reply......

Just thought i'd post it on here,just in case i was doing something wrong.

Doesn't really matter,I have the resolution set at 4320 x 900 which looks great.

I think this is the best 16:9 resolution that i can use ?

Thanks..... :)

That's 3x 16:10 actually... 3x 1440x900. Same aspect ratio as 5040x1050.

Strange thing is that before i installed the TH2GO i was using a resolution of 1680x1050 on a single screen and the monitor was displaying it ok then ?

Or is this a trait of the TH2GO ?

Triplehead2go uses a 57hz (Nvidea) or 59hz (ATI) instead of the standard 60hz vSync signal. I think your monitor cant hadle the lower clock rate.
