But the way pre-release driver 10.3 has out. Installed it... and.. still no bezel management. Looks like I really need to change my EDID :(

P.S. pretty nice changelog :rockout

My Eyefinity Bezel Management now works! Thx!

I did a slightly different way: First I used Phoenix EDID Viewer. Read out the Monitor's EDID info from Registry! Click edit, adjust screen size to your needs, save as .dat. Then go to MonInfo, load the .dat, Create .INF and finally install the .inf driver for your monitor.

I had to log out of windows and delete my Eyefinity config before the CCC would let me setup Bezel Management!


That is some good info :rockout. I never got this method to work with the 10.3 preview drivers. Which driver did you use? The new 10.3a?

Grrr this is still not working on my setup and it's starting to **** me off! Come on ATI, get your act together. We should not have to mess about with flashing EDID data to get bezel compensation working, it's just totally unnecessary.

I happen to work for hp and have requested an updated firmware for the monitor, but I'm not holding my breath. I've also had a replacement panel from hp, manufactured in Feb 2010 so bang up to date, and it has the same crap EDID data.

I suspect the ATI drivers look at the actual EDID on the monitor, not the data in the registry, hence why EDID overrides don't tend to work. Dumb programming imho.

[IGNORE THIS]Please see the start post how to unlock the EDID of your HP LP2475w! I have the exact same monitor and have updated it successfully.[/IGNORE THIS]

Never mind this, I was able to flash the DVI port EDID, but not the DisplayPort. I ended up flashing my other 2 monitors... :doh

Thanks for the info, but I thought you ended up flashing your Samsungs instead because you couldn't flash the DP port on the LP2475w...? I'm in the same boat, and want to keep using DP on my HP monitor.

Let us know if you have any results getting an HP LP 2475w EDID update from your employer :).
