How many NAME=CUST_MODE, and NAME=CUSTOMDISPLAY are there?

I only found 2, and 4 respectfully, and for some reason, matrox keeps changing my resolution at every re-boot.

change all you found

I did, it still keeps changeing my resolution each time I re-boot...

why not use nv surround ?

try replace...

Because I use GTS 250's, and am not going to upgrade anytime soon.

Did you try setting DeviceInfo.ini as Read-only ?

Did you try setting DeviceInfo.ini as Read-only ?

Nope, just did, I'll see if it works.

No worky. This is really wierd! I had it working flawlessy last week. I did a fresh re-install of windows, and for some reason now it doesnt work.

im really gonna cry here i have been at this for a few hours now setting up the custom res was easy works grate

changes all the custom displays and cust_mode to customdisplay_1 and cust_mode_1.. save reboot and bam back at 2x displays and crap res.. tryed it again changed the file to read only.. reboot same thing..

i dont know what happen but last time i had this hooked up when mw2 came out i had 5040x1050 working strate away with the updated drivers i dont know wtf happen but its bs...

Thanks to all of you who have contributed to this fix / work-around. Bravo!

I read through all the posts in this thread, looking for a solution to one remaining problem I am having. When attempting to set up Bezel Management, my 3rd monitor (right most) will go "black/blank" and display the OCD message "No Signal", when I try going passed "60 pixels". If I return the setting to "60 pixels" (or less), every thing is OK. The 1st monitor (left most) works as it should. The 2nd monitor (middle) is uneffected.

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

BTW, here is my setup.

Newest Beta drivers from Nvidia - 267.24 (win7 64bit)
Newest firmware from Matrox - 2.3.50 (table 6.61)
GMX software - 2.06

NOTE TO ALL... GMX software version 2.07 will NOT work for me. Let me be more specific. I can get the 5040 x 1050 to work by setting it through Nvidia Control Panel only, neither Windows nor GMX software see it.
