The cables with the additional 4 pins are DVI-I Cables, ... |

| Could you please show me the ends of each of those cables you mention so that I find them exactly so in the shops & if they fit here. Maplin's cables are £20 each. The cables simply have to have the connectors you can see at your graphics card and at your monitors. So, you need: - Single-Link DVI t... |

| If you're looking to use 3 displays, one MUST be connected to the DisplayPort. If one of your monitors a DisplayPort of its' own, that's great. If not, you have to use an active DisplayPort-to-VGA/DVI/HDMI adapter. There are a few adapters that work well, and there is a thread here that has many pa... |

The resolution is 1920*1080 on all screens (native).
I tried scaling now (in CCC) and it works although the resolution is native.
Strange, but now I'm happy. Thx for the input. :D |

| You would be financially better off using a separate video card to drive the other two displays. That way you could buy a cheaper 5870 not the 6 edition. You would also only need 1 active adapter. You're right, that's generally an option. But I have already the cheapest option concerning the video ... |

Starte the 182.50 install, but quit (so it will just copy the drivers to the NVIDIA folder). 3. Uninstall the current driver from Device Manager. 4. Restart 5. The 182.50 drivers will aut... |
