Widescreen Gaming Forum

hey guys i recently upgraded from a gtx 280 to a 295 and i started having some problems. when i try to play any game now, as soon as it turns on it starts flickering none stop. i noticed that if i plug in 1 monitor everything works fine and no flickering, but when i plug in my TH2G, no matter what resolution i choose, it flickers.

Weird thing is that if i let the game start up (while flickering), for example in fallout 3, as soon as i load my file and start playing the flickering stops, but if i pause the game for a min everything starts flickering again, and stops as soon as i unpause.

While exploring nvidia control panel settings i found multi-GPU configuration. If i turn off multi-gpu mode everything works fine, no flickering at all. But with this option turned off my graphic benchmarks obviously decrease.

my computer specs are:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 - 2.83GHz
Dual Boot Windows XP 64bit / Windows 7 64bit
8GB of ram
EVGA GTX 295
TripleHead2Go Digital Edition

Anyone have any suggestion to how i may get rid of this flickering problem while having multi-GPU option active?

I found that when I used a Longer DVI Cable with the TH2Go My monitor would flicker and turn on and off. Although the monitors said it was active it couldn't get a steady picture. Try using shorter cables.
