Hello

Just upgraded to the latest firmware so I could finally use the max res on my 22 inch monitors. But the problem now is that when I run a game that don't support TH2GO then its on my left monitor.

And I want it how it was before in the middle. And yeah I got the latest Powerdesk as they wanted me to have as well.

Hello ....

With the latest firmware update for the TripleHead2Go Digital you can set your single screen gaming to any of your 3 monitors ...
This should work even if you don't have widescreens. ... but obviously you wouldn't use widescreen resolutions as in this example below... :lol:
Get the firmware HERE

Here is how ...

First set it up with a single screen resolution ...
It defaults to the left screen ...
Now hit ... "swap displays" until it is on the center screen.



Once the single screen resolution is on the center screen you can switch back to a TripleHead resolution but games running a single head resolution should now display on the center screen ... :D


EDIT ... added screenshot.

Much obliged to you both for the question posed and the solution, respectively. I've just installed my TH2GO this afternoon over a lunch break and hadn't even begun to try and figure this one out yet. Thanks!

Hey M8!

Great Tip!
Just a small correction, on the Hot Keys, you will actually define a key for "Restore Saved Display Setup", not Swap Display.

Cheers,

Me

Hi, I have made that have you wrote, but if i swap the screens the only monitor that work is the left monitor !! (and not the middle/center monitor ghrrrrrr...)

My last message:
Hey man, I have installed the last update firmware/driver with the new resolutions, but now I can't play COD4 and others games like AArmy in the MIDDLE MONITOR!!!!
Is working with the only LEFT monitor (i have 3 monitors: left and righ side are 22" and the middle monitor is an 24").
How can I resolve this BIG problem (I suppose not only for me)?
I want to play with the 24" center monitor (if possible)..
Help me please!!
Thanks in advance!

P.S.: some months ago on the web there was a fix (a firmware... made by Matrox) for resolve this problem but I can't find it again!!!

Hmmmm ... very odd ...

Just to get things a bit clearer for me ...
You set your desktop to 1680x1050 using display properties ...
This shows on your left screen ... ? ... correct ?

When you do this bit ...
Use the “Swap Displaysâ€
