For two projectors you don't need anything from Matrox. Just hook them up to the two outputs on your video card, span your dekstop across them, and select the appropriate resolution in rFactor.

Depending on the resolution of your projectors, you might be limited by your ATI card. I think the max res you will be able to run is 2048x768 (double 1024x768).

This should be in its own thread.

Found this topic, and do you think it will work with a 22' widescreen? (native 1680x1050)

With a 1680x1050 monitor you could do a faux triplehead test at 1920x480.

How is this possible if the max Horizontal resolution of a 1680x1050 monitor is 1680?

Faux th2go for 1680 is 1680x448

I was bored and decided to try this on my CRT.

1920x480

The third happened a few seconds into the race. Do you think it is game specific or is the monitor saying it does not like the resolution? I do not want to boink my monitor.

My native is 1920x1200.

The image outputs at 1920x1080. Should I only see the 480 if it works properly?

I have a big monitor 37" but the res is only 1920x1080 so wonder how well this will work.

It would be a good way to "try before I buy" though if I can get it working even just a little bit.

Not sure how to really get started though.

Try setting up a custom resolution for 1920x810 (2:1) or 1920x640 (3:1). 1920x480 is an actual low-end TH2Go resolutions, so you could try that as well.

I cant for the life of me figure out how to get a custom res in the ATI panel.

I did find that ever since I updated to 8.10 a while back I have not had crossfire since!

It lead me to update to the newest 8.12 that still has the issue, but Asus has a bios update that fixes it so I have the new bios for my mobo too.

Up to 60fps pretty constant with vsync on Fallout 3 maxed out now.
