According to the list of supported monitors my Acer V223 should be supported.

Configuration:

Triplehead2Go digital
3*Acer V223
2*GTX 280

When setting my resolution to 5040*1050 my taskbar is gone, looks like the value 1050 is too big.
In case of setting the screens to lower resolution everything is shown right.

Any help would be very appreciated.

I have a P223w and its fine.
Go into the monitor OSD and goto the Information section (big "i") and post what resolution and refresh it reports the current mode being in (when in 5040 obviously).

You are right, my osd shows that each of my displays is in mode 1680*1024.

I do not understand, can i get it done to 5040 * 1050 then?

Not sure the exact source of the problem but it sounds like some kind of overscan.

TV's have them often, but when a newer TV detects a PC it usually turns it off. It usually wont say overscan. But look for something like PC mode, a scaling mode things like that.

If you rule the monitors out, then it has to be something in your computer setup along the same lines. I know on my ATI card it is called LCD Overdrive. Not sure what the Nvidia equivalent is.

You might be onto something there!

Here is the nVidia equivilent, OP should try changing the scaling mechanism, just rotate through the options:



Note it incorrectly thinks 4080x768 (1360x768) is my native res!

There is a thread about how to setup a custom res, in addition to just the right pixels it involves timings and a few other things. I would look into that thread its in the surround tech/help section it may be the solution you need.

Also I guess only certain drivers seem to work correctly.
