Post subject: | **NM FIXED** Windows 7 - Can't get 4320x900 |
Okay, I recently had to rebuild my system from XP to Windows 7 and no matter what I do I can't get 4320x900 to work (it did worked flawlessly in XP). My setup: Intel i7 920, Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, 2xnvidia 8800gts 640 SLI, 3 Samsung 940bw 1440x900 monitors. I have read all the posts here and tried the following drivers (I have the newest firmware on my TH2GO): Nvidia: 191.07, 191.06, 195(beta), and 190.62 Matrox: The 2.4.0.11, newest version, triple-wide beta version Monitor: Shows Matroxtriplehead2go digital in control panel I have also tried http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/11228 AND http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/9330 In all cases the monitor defaults to 3840x800. If I run the powerdesk wizard, it lets me choose the 1440x900 on 3 monitors but it gets "windows failed to apply settings" at the final step of the wizard. If I open up the power desk from 2.4.0.11 and go to edit modes, it shows the triple-wide options with a checkbox but if I go to change mode they are not there. I can add the custom 4320x900 resolution as suggested by some posters, but games won't let me select it as a option (they still show 3840x800 as my max). Also after adding the custom resolution, when I reboot windows the powerdesk software removes them. At no point can I get the matrox software itself or any game to recognize that fact my monitors are 4320x900. I am getting pretty frustrated at this point. Anyone have any ideas? I am trying to avoid the 182.50 drivers if possible (don't want to lose aero features). **EDIT** I just bit the bullet and put 182.50 drivers on. Everything works fine (except for the known issue of flickering vegetation in Dragon Age Origins) |
