| Post subject: | Eyefinity help urgently needed |
Hi guys, I really need to get this problem sorted within the next couple of hours, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to get my 3 x 23" Samsung SyncMaster BX 2350 monitors working through Eyefinity, but am having problems. I am using Windows 7 ultimate, an Intel Q8300 Quad core processor, 8GB DDR2 Ram and finally a Radeon HD 6850 Graphics card. Before we go any further, I will explain that two of the monitors are connected via DVI, the other is connected to the display port via an active Accell adapter. Before I go into the Catalyst Control Centre, all three monitors work perfectly as extended displays, each at 1920 x 1080. however I need to set up one large display in order to use Microsoft Flight Simulator. Firstly in Catalyst I duplicate all three monitors, then try to turn them into a group. The system does this but keeps them duplicated (it does not turn into one long display). Going into display properties, the option for 5750 x 1080 is there, but every time I select it and click apply it stays at 1920 x 1080. I have tried everything in Catalyst an the image will not go larger. If I go into the Windows Display Resolution, it shows all three monitors grouped together. The resolution is set to 1920 x 1080, but their is an option to change it right up to 5750 x 1080. If I do this, the resolution manager stops responding and crashes, reverting back to 1080 x 1920. I know my system can run this, as I am currently using all three monitors as an extended display, each at 1920 x 1080, so why cant i set it up as one long eyefinity display? Any help would be massively appreciated. |

Clean out the drivers and re-install them. You were 90% there. When you get to that point in setting resolution from 1920x1080 to 5760x1080, you'll be done. |

You don't have to clean out your drivers persé, but it might help if my tips won't work. Before you click the create eyefinity display group button in CCC, you need to only have your center monitor activated. So disable both extended desktop and duplicated monitors by going to 'screen resolution' (rightclick on desktop). There all but your center monitor have to be greyed out. Now you can create the eyefinity display group without problems hopefully. If you have the option of disabling a group you have already created, click on that first before you create a new group. |
