Does it matter that my DHT2go box and all 3 monitors are hooked up while doing a clean install of W7 Pro? I've done this in the past with XP, and Vista, but never really knew if it matters. Is it better to do an OS install with one monitor and the dht2go box unhooked?

Should not bother it at all. I did this about 2 weeks ago. When it installs it see the TH2Gd as a single generic monitor that is capable of 3840x800 (I think that is what is was) so there is no problem. It will use your 3 monitors.

Once windows is all installed just install the latest drivers from matrox and you will get all the features back and the increased resolutions.

I've always installed with everything hooked up from the start.
