I have windows 7 64 bit, and continue to use the 182.50 drivers. They will also work with windows 7 (in fact thats all that will work on my pc for triple wide). |

Did you try using the beta Matrox Powerdesk software? http://www.box.net/shared/9b3cr7c6zp |

Yes, it was the first PD that I tried since I use to use that to fix the out of range problem i was having with vista. On windows 7 it still gives me the out of range error. I am now on the 177's and tried the beta PD again; still gives me an error. I set the custom resolution and it works now. I was enjoying the latest drivers with dx 10 support on vista 32 bit and windows 7 only now works on incredibly old drivers /sigh I guess I am back to using Vista... |

As a temporary solution, I guess I can leave the msg box open and do my thing, but it's extremely annoying and the chances I might alt tab and press enter accidently to have it revert back while I am gaming would suck!You should be able to simply close (Alt+F4) the nvidia windows without losing the current res. ;) Proper Win7 drivers from Matrox are on the way, hopefully these will help... |

Got it working thank to you. Here is my thread describing all the troubles I had. the big thing I did not do at first was where you said this "Special Note: On reboot if Windows automatically reinstalls an Nvidia display driver you will need to uninstall it again making sure to choose the option to delete the driver from the system and reboot again. (This mainly applies to Windows 7) " after allowing that to happen, it worked. I also did what was suggested before and testing the CVT reduced blank first, then inputing all the manual numbers. |

EDIT: I don't know if this is the same software. I also didn't realize this was the software referred to in other posts here. [original message] I could not find the old GXM software (2.4.0.11). That's because it's actually listed as 2.04.00.011. It took me a long while to find so I thought I'd provide a link for the rest of you. GXM 2.04.00.011 http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/support/drivers/previous/display/ Direct Link: http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/support/drivers/download/?id=307 I have not tried this yet. I'm currently providing pc support for a family member and a friend. I'll report back with my results. |
