| Post subject: | "Conclusive 5040 fix for NVIDIA" etc & FSX problem |
I have gone through the excellect contribution by elior77 & read threads by others on this forum but have not found a solution to my version of the problem. I have 5040 x 1050 showing as desktop resolution, and listed in the modes for the nVIDIA card, but cannot see it listed in GXM nor in FSX. Here is my setup: nVIDIA GTX 285 driver 196.21 TH2Go firmware 2.3.4.0, video table 6.56, PD 2.07 OS Win 7 x64 CPU i7 975 (3) ASUS 225 22" monitors on TH2Go (1) ASUS 224 22" monitor on 2nd GTX port All monitors support 1680 x 1050 I set up the custom resolution in nvidia driver exactly per elior77 instruction, refresh set a 59.4, edited deviceinfo.ini. I cannot get FSX to see the 5040 x 1050 resolution. I've been tearing my hair out (what little I have) on this for about 3 days, posted problem on another forum, still not solved. I also tried removing the single monitor, but that made no difference. Can anyone tell me what I have overlooked? Thanks Gene |

Hi and welcome to WSGF :) Have you tried to manually enter the res you want in the FSX.cfg? Example; [DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285.0] Mode=5040x1050x32 |

Thanks for the suggestion. I did edit fsx.cfg, I have 2 entries, one for GTX 285.0 and one for GTX 285.1. I manually set these individually & together, the computer did not complain, but it had no effect. |

Hi Gene, I have just about the same system as you except it is a 980X and different monitors. I had no problem with the 5040 x 1050 resolution. You mention GXM......I think of everything through Matox Power Desk (64 Bit Version). I assume you have that installed. Does it show your 5040 x 1050 resolution as available in the multi display setup section? Also can you switch your 3 display monitors to 5040 x 1050 via hot key? Stiletto2 |

Stiletto2 thanks for the response. Re GXM, I am talking about Matrox Power Desk. And it does not show 5040 x 1050 as being available to select. 3 x 1680 x 1050 @ 57 is listed in the mode list on output 2, but it cannot be checked. RE hot key to select 5040 x 1050 I do not know what you are talking about. Maybe I missed something here. In windows if I right click on the desktop & choose screen resolution, the three monitors on #2 show 5040 x 1050 in the resolution box. I interpret this to mean that windows sees the 5040 resolution ok. I do not undestand why Power Desk and FSX do not see it. |
