Regarding the "auto detect" setting for Hayden's fix - has anyone had success manually entering their resolution? I have mine set to autodetect, though I'm unsure if it is actually doing so properly. However, if I untick this option and set my actual res (which is 6048x1080 bezel corrected), starting the game gives me all the odd menus etc as if it isnt running the fix at all.

Am I alone in this?

My brothers was doing this and it was because he didn't set his triple monitor resolution in the .ini file.

Its NOT the .ini in the game directory, that one is for when you screw things up it is a backup.

The correct skyrimPrefs.ini is located in your Users//Documents/My Games/Skyrim/. (on Vista/Windows 7)

Use the 0.3 fix, guys. Looks like 0.4 (a, at least) is the one that has been broken by the Steam update in terms of the mouse going bonkers.

I'm using 0.4A with no issues.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! FIXED

hi guys. im going INSANE!!

tried every fix available i think..

problem is not FOV, menus or anything like this. but with my rig i get between 5 - 10fps.. it is completely unplayable. tried turning everything low, AA off etc etc etc, dll`s.. but cant seem to shake it.

read about 60+ pages in this tread before i lost it, saw other people have been bothered with the same problem but couldnt find their results..
so i must ask. can anyone help me? i know there are some issues regarding eyefinity and so forth. when playing single monitor everything is fine.
put both in games folder and skyrim folder skyrimprefs.dll 5760x1200.

my rig:
i7 2600k @ 4.8Ghz.
Asus P8P67 Deluxe
3x24" HP ZR24W
2X Asus HD-6970
16GB Ram

Try disabling crossfire and using one card, along with eyefinity crossfire is broken.

I couldn't get 4.0A to work setting to my res of 4720x1600, but I found if I set it to one monitor and approximately one third or so - I use 1800 - it does display and doesn't cut off my text. If I set it to auto, it picks what is my 1/3 res and then chops the text.

Map is still screwed for me, but it has been on all versions.

I'm using an ATI 6950, latest drivers and Soft TH to get it to work across my monitors.
