If your drivers are that old then of course the first thing to try is updating them.
"Old" being two months old? lol. I will be trying to update the drivers to see if that solves the issue, but i was just wondering if anyone else had experienced this. Thanks. |

forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere, but a quick search didn't find anyone with the same problem. When i set the resolution in-game to 5600x1200 all i get is a wildly flickering screen that's still @ 1900x1200, has anyone else experienced this or know of a solution for it? Thanks in advance... |

Thanks for the advice all -- I'll get used to it. =)
You really do get used to it. Can't imagine playing any game (especially FPS') without using triple wide monitors. Seeing someone out of the "corn of your eye" that about to get you is an awsome advantage. |

Haven't tried that much yet wardtuk, I'll give it a shot this weekend and let you know if it works for me. EDIT: Identical monitors are completely not required. So long as all three can output the same resolution Eyefinity seems happy. (I.E. 2x 19x12 panels and a 16x10 panel can all work together, p... |

Nothing at all yet. Still haven't had time for a full reinstall, unfortunately. But I have a theory... and the AMD guys might not like it. I'm running this on a 790GX motherboard - it has integrated graphics. Disabled as they may be, i have a feeling it may be causing my issues, because i know the 5... |

Another update: Still no joy. Ive ran driver cleaner a few times, swapped heads some more, and still nothing. A clean install will be coming this weekend.... I can tell you at that least CCC THINKS a triple wide display is possible, because one i have the eyefinity group of 3 monitors @ 1680x1050 i ... |

Could it be some sort of conflict with older drivers, or even conflict with leftover TH2go stuff? Because different monitors do work, I have a Asus 25.5" x Dell 27" x Asus 25.5" setup and no issues. Ill probably be doing a fresh install of Windows 7 x64 soon. Been using the latest 9.10 drivers ever... |

Hmmm... i wonder if the problem IS in fact the DP-DVI adapter... Cant even make a display group with the two exact same monitors but with one of them using the adapter and one not. Ill keep testing and see if i can get my hands on a usb wall adapter soon. |

When i create a group (after selecting 3x1) with the other monitors disabled, im obligated to click on each of the other two monitors, one at a time. Each one is then added in clone mode, with a "yes/no" prompt each time. Then, when all three were once again enabled and cloned, i tried pulling the u... |

When they are cloned, have you tried right clicking on them and selecting Display Group? No change. When i right-click on display 1 (which is the cloned group) i can select display group, and when the popup appears, i can select 3x1. But when i click ok i see a momentary flash of a triplewide displ... |

Another update: Forcing the drivers again make all three monitors appear exactly the same in the device manager does not change anything. However, when checking the "hardware device ID" of each monitor, two are still listed as "BNQ76CE" and one is a "BNQ76F2". I suppose this is why Eyefinity does no... |

No luck yet... tried reinstalling the drivers, switching heads... nadda.
Is it possible that Eyefinity only works with Exactly the same monitors? |

Hey all, Trying to find some help in troubleshooting my Eyefinity setup now... I have 3x BenQ monitors (2x FP222WH and 1x FP222W) which all correctly report their resolution @ 1680x1050. However, when connecting them all to my 5870 using the Dell DP-DVI adapter, CCC only seems to want to put them in... |

Hey all, I'm still a new guy around here (but I actively read all the time). Anyways, my question: In the 4870x2 a feature called "sideport" was always shown on the slides and whatnot but never implemented, and it was widely believed that if sideport were to be enabled the 4870x2 could have surpasse... |

I've been to get this game running at 3x 1280x800 but 3x 1440x900 does not appear to be supported. Any solutions for this? |
