So, I just got another monitor today and eyefinity isnt cooperating. I made my group just fine, but when I open a game, the image is duplicated on both screens. How do I get it to span all the way across? |

Edit: It seems to be game specific. Mafia 2 would duplicate but unreal tourny 3 worked just fine. Edit again: I change the resolution in the save file and it works now. |

For Mafia 2 it will show the higher resolutions. Just choose that and apply and it will go to eyefinity mode. |

Slinky, when you changed the resolution and got Eyefinity working in Mafia 2, did you automatically get a centred HUD? In other words, is your minimap in your center screen? |

I've completed the game now on a 3x1 Eyefinity setup and the HUD was always on the center screen for me. Never was an issue.

Strange that my HUD looks like it does. I can only assume that the BizLink Dual-link DP-DVI adapter is to blame. I've got a VGA adapter now, but I had to RMA one of my screens so I have to wait until I get another one to see if I get a centered HUD with the new adapter. |

What particular game resolution did you choose? I chose the 3x1920x1080. That sets the game to show properly on the three screens. I didn't try any other resolution but have to wonder if, for example, you choose something like 5760x1080 [if that is even an option] if that doesn't force the HUD to the far right? |

5760x1080 is what I used. I didn't notice 3x1920x1080, but I will check it out when I get my monitor back. I suppose I won't be getting any bezel compensation with this resolution... |

Yes, you are right. Using the 3x[whatever] option eliminates the Bezel Compensation in the game. It doesn't void Bezel Compensation otherwise, though. But, I really didn't notice any problem with it during the entire game. At least it wasn't distracting due to me keeping my focus on the center screen. |
