I manage to set up everything perfect in 3D surround. However, upon restart I have 3 blank monitors, outer two are on but blank with 2 mouse cursers, 1 in each monitor. WTF? As far as I'm aware I am applying the settings. Is there a conflict with windows perhaps?

I have to take all the leads out from my 590 and put them back in 1 at a time an then go through the whole process each time.

Any help greatly appreciated.

On closer inspection I can see that windows is only recognising 2 monitors even though nvidia control panel see's 3 and my res is set at 5760 / 1080. This must be where the problem lies. Is this a GTX 590 issue that anyone is aware of?

This is my windows display control panel with the default surround resolution of 5760 / 1080. You may notice that only 2 monitors are apparent, 1 and 2.

Could you please check your setup and report back if any different, or the same? Many thanks.

I have a reboot problem whereby my surround settings are not saved. I assumed this was the problem, but I'm not sure now having just seen a surround rig on youtube with the same windows res settings.

Many thanks Delphium. I guessed it would be. I don't know what I've done but now it reboots just fine, the only thing I've done different is not setup any custome resolution. I am sooo happy now.

i had similar issues and they too are working now. i wonder if it was a driver update or something.

i wish they would just fix the switching from a single res to three seperate ones issue. i swear that thing just random selects locations every time i switch. at this point i just don't switch and am getting used ot not having use of fullscreen buttons and such anymore.
