Purchased my TH2Go over a year ago & when I first set it up, this website was a great help.

But after many frustrations with Vista & matrox software plus my monitors could have had issues, I could only get the resolution of 4320 x 900.

I took the TH2Go off the PC and went away from it for 8 months until now.

Upgraded same computer I was using to Windows 7 64 bit.

same 2 x 8800GTX in SLI with nvidia driver 197.45

same 3 x 22" Acer V223w Lcds

Installed lastest software from matrox website

Booted up in 4320 x 900 res right away. then Matrox GXM came up with 5040 x 1050 res, applied it and all is GREAT!

Could not believe how easy it wasy :)

thanks again for all the help I have read on here.

One question:

Should I leave things alone since all is running well, or can I update the nvidia driver to latest version?

Thanks again all

Nvidia drivers v.200+ have a completely different install process than earlier versions, so you'll have to setup GXM again. From there, anything can happen. :lol:
Don't worry though, interesting things happened in 8 months, and we now have a workaround in case auto setup fails: http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/11884

Welcome back to tripleheaded greatness (and casual tripleheadaches) :)
