Hi Guys!,

ive just got 2 new screens, trying to span display with surround but having some trouble,

Screens,

1 x syncmaster 2232be, DVI
2 x syncmaster sa350, VGA + HDMI

i have 2 g/cards that are N560GTI - Ti with DVI,

ive got the physx settings on auto

ive connected my 2232 from dvi to dvi,
the sa350 ive got a VGA cable with a converter to DVI on the end, do i need to change this to a HDMI to DVI?

when i go to nvid control panel and click config, the screen goes black for a sec then only 2 come back up and the 3rd is just left black, from then on i can not access my 3rd screen,


Any ideas?

Best guess is that you need all D-Sub (vga, analog) or all DVI (digital, possibly hdmi will suffice).
Somebody must have a setup that has 2 different types of monitors, maybe they just haven't seen this yet :~

I run two 60Hz, and one 120Hz monitor just fine!

As -Deckard- says, try running all DVI leads :)

Don't mix analog with digital output on NVIDIA. It doesn't like it. Preferably use all digital connectors. Monoprice has DVI-HDMI cables. I suggest using DVI-HDMI cables in preference of anything analog.
