Alright, so here's what's going on: I applied the "Conclusive 5040 fix for all nVIDIA users !" and almost all is good. Only problem I'm running into is that my custom resolution resets after two reboots, I apply the custom resolution under the nVidia control panel, get me my 5040 x 1050, restart the computer for one reason or another, Matrox tells me my resolutions have changed and a restart is needed for the changes to take affect, at this point I still have 5040 x 1050, then I restart for one reason or another and I receive the "Out of range" message on my center monitor, I hit ctrl + alt + 2 (my shortcut for single screen 1680 x 1050) and... No more 5040 x 1050 anywhere, I need to re-input all the settings into the nVidia control panel. How can I get the control panel (or whatever is causing this) to stop resetting my custom resolution? It seems I'm not the only person who has run into this problem, but I haven't been able to find a fix for this. So maybe you amazing folks here at the WSGF know a fix or can help in any way. Thanks in advance guys! Also, specs: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 Newest Matrox TripleHead2Go-DE firmware and Powerdesk nVidia Forceware 195.81 Beta Driver (Tried the WHQL driver as well, same issue) Intel Core2Quad Q9450 @ Stock Clocks 6 Gigs of DDR2 1000watt Corsair PS I'm using 3 Viewsonic VA2226w's on two EVGA 260 GTX's in SLI. I can hardly wait until the GF100 drivers arrive so I can ditch the Matrox entirely, I love it, but it's caused many a headache. |

See, I was thinking that was the issue as well. I never got the pop-up asking for me to "Keep" my settings, I've tried and retried editing the ini and it still won't ask me. I've done all the steps exactly as listed but it just doesn't want to work for me for whatever reason. |

Aaaaand... That was the issue. Due to my own lack of intelligence, while editing the .ini I moronically assumed that there were only single instances of each entry to edit, not multiple, which there in fact were. I guess that's why Elior said to edit all of them. Heh, whoops. All is right now. Thanks Kaimelar :) |
