So I finally got my monitors and now I'm rocking my very own Eyefinity setup, and it's a thing of beauty. I love the expansiveness of the screens, 3 is so much more than 2, even when just getting my work done. I have run into some issues that I wanted to ask about before I spend forever trying to fix them myself.
-I occasionally get an extra large mouse pointer on certain monitors. It looks like the pointer has been turned to extra large (I checked, it hadn't been), and when I move the mouse from one monitor to another it goes to normal. It's happened a few times and it's not always the same monitor, and sometimes it's more than one (giant pointer on two screens, normal on one). I couldn't fix it or repeat the issue, but it keeps cropping up, and I have yet to see a pattern. Anyone heard of this?
-When I switch my profiles (one SLS profile for gaming and one for separate monitors for working), it doesn't seem to keep my settings. When I switch to the SLS profile I have to re-create the display group, and when I switch to my other profile I need to re-order my monitors. Is this expected? I do select save all catalyst settings when I save and activate the profiles.
-Occasionally in games I'll set the resolution to 5760x1080 and my displayport monitor will go into power save mode or complain about the resolution. It's set to 1920x1080 @60 hz, and the message on the monitor says to please set it at that same setting. The monitors all have a displayport connector on them, so it's not an adapter issue. This happened repeatedly in Crysis.
Other than those little hickups, it's been working pretty well, the bigger problem is that I can't seem to find a game that works perfectly. Are there any games that you all can recommend that are the least hassle to setup? I've been using this forum for fixes on games, but the solutions don't always seem to work that well. So far I've tried:
-Crysis (had the monitor going to sleep issue)
-Bioshock 1.1 (tried dopefish's program, but it never seemed to fix the FOV, I couldn't get it to activate)
-Borderlands (lots of issues, all talked about in the thread here)
-L4D (FOV issues)
-TF4 (FOV issues)
-Battlefield 2 (FOV issues, dopefish's program helped a bit. Took it from unplayable to partially fisheyed)
I really didn't spend long with any particular game, so if any of these are known to work with the right tinkering, I'll put in some more effort.
I realize that not every game is going to work right, but it would be nice if I could get at least a couple games to work well and not fisheye like mad.
Thanks for any help or advice
PS, I'm running Win7 64 Ultimate, Core i5, 4GB RAM, 5850, and the newest drivers for everything, as of 12/1. Also, I'm fully aware how much of a mess the wires are right now, thats a project for this weekend.
