...on when NVidia is going to get off their collective rear end and produce a new driver that works for us TH2Go owners. I'm not one to rock the boat, because if it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid, but 182.50 is getting pretty damn long in the tooth. What's amazing to me is that running multimonitors is exactly the sort of thing one would think NVidia/ATi would be all over as it represents a distinct opportunity to sell more cards. Instead, we get the mushroom treatment :roll: . Anyone heard anything? |

Have you tryed these? http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/10769 The 186.18 work for me and the SLI patch has given me an extra 12 fps boost across 3 screens than without the patch for ArmA 2. Tho im not sure if the beta drivers have a sli patch. Yea..I also would like to see nVidia support TRI display modes in their drivers. If and when they do, Matrox has no one to blame but themselves! |

The SLI patch just edits the Drivers XML file to add Arma2.exe, so it should work most drivers around the same age. I have the 186.24 up and running again, though I find Arma2 unplayable still. |

I'm still on 181.72 drivers because I've yet to get 5040x1050 at 65Hz with any other driver since. This is just a guesstimate but judging by the 190.xx drivers, it looks like Nvidia are restructuring their control panel and how it works with the driver. I wouldn't be expecting any real TH2GO solutions until the 190 series are officially released, which might not be until Windows 7 is out. My two cents... |

Here are some settings that will help to run Arma 2. Nvidia CP/3D settings: Defalt settings with pre-renderer frames set to:6 In game settings Video/ advance settings: Postprocess effects: Low or off video memory: Normal Visability: 2500 meters or lower Everything else set to: normal Note: The ArmA2 demo has a benchmarking tool under the single player tab. However the full version dose not. 30 FPS is playable |

While you have good intention to help others, such a setting isn't really good for recommendation. It needs to take account of what resolution and other settings you use with it. I for one get severe performance drops with anything above 5. And at that, only in those games where I've compared it, others might allow for more or less. |

Just a heads-up! I've just installed the 190.56 drivers found at http://laptopvideo2go.com/ and have successfully created a 5040x1050x65Hz resolution which I haven't been able to do since 181.72! Tried this rez in Fallout 3 and it works. Damn near fell off my chair :) A couple of photo's showing monitor info... 
Give them try! Windows 7 x64 Beta Powerdesk SE and current release (2.05.00.020) Wizard still errors at modes change though. |
