Not sure why, but i have no way of setting the Bezel Compensation - i feel like my driver/ccc install is somewhat incomplete, as when i create an Eyefinity group - it seems always "remember" the last time i created one - i have no way of changing its settings



Am i looking in the wrong place?

Using 12.2 Preview Drivers and newest CAP3 - is it safe to "downgrade" to 11.x and then go back up...

Also If i switch back to extended and go to create a new Eyefinity group, the resulting screen isnt combined - each screen is a duplicate, but i get an option to increase the resolution to 5760x1080 and at that point the screens combine...



But still no way to set bezel and other things to Eyefinity group - i only have Enable/Disable - i can hit Apply a thousand times and nothing really happens



At this point im kind of stuck - i cant edit the Eyefinity group, set bezel compensation, Hydragrid doesnt do anything (does it work in Eyefinity)...ive driversweeper reinstalled a dozen times...

Thanks for any advice guys - driving me insane, hopefully im just doing something stupid

SOLVED IT.



After numerous reinstalls, uninstalls with Disksweeper, Safemode uninstalls, repairs of .NET4, reinstall of .NET4 - I finally fixed it by doing the following.

1) Uninstall Radeon 6900 using normal uninstaller, reboot.

2) Windows Reinstalls from saved backup somewhere

3) Delete all TEMP directorors (eg C:WindowsTemp C:UserTemp, etc)

4) Uninstall Radeon 6900 drivers from Device Manager

5) Use DriverSweeper

6) Reboot

7) Reinstall drivers normally.


After that everything behaved normally. Bezel compensation was available, Hydragrid, everything.



I'm guessing the Windows temp files were being used or corrupted or something, as it was really the only thing different from driversweeper/.net4 repair/reinstall i was normally doing.
