I guess I'll go ahead and describe specifically why it has never worked for me in case it might help the coders.

What I get with the latest Helifax fix is similar. Weird placing of the opening screen to the left, no HUD's or markers of any kind in-game, and when I press esc for menu, it pops up for a fraction of a second on the left screen and then disappears. I have to ctrl-alt-del to close it down.

I had this problem (or something similar) when I used the latest Widescreen Fixer (I think 411r), with Skyrim...

If I use a previous version of Widescreen Fixer (before the sweeping changes to the code he mentioned in the updates), everything works perfectly.

Now I'm just waiting for Widescreen Fixer to hopefully support the latest patch 1.5.26 and we'll all be in business. But until then, no problems running 1.5.24.

That usually happens when the plugin is not properly setup. Try to set up manually the configuration.

From other things you've said, it sounds like you are trying to put Helifax's .dll into Haydens fix. You need to be using Widescreen Fixer.

All the specific instructions you need are here. http://widescreengamingforum.com/dr/elder-scrolls-v-skyrim/en

That's the same problem I've been having. I am using eyefinity 5760x1080 no bezel correction. And I've tried setting up the plugin manually

Yeah, that's pretty much the issue.

Against what I said earlier, out of curiosity I went ahead and wasted a bunch of time trying to get this one to work. Still doesn't. I've made sure the versions matched up, tried more delay on fix start, tried manual setup, etc. and it just doesn't work for me. Also I'm not an expert, but from everything I've read, TH2GO behaves no differently with programs or patches than direct nvidia solutions. Totally my fault... I should have just stuck with the one I knew worked for me, and waited for an updated fix version.

The REAL KICKER, is that I plugged my box back into the internet to do all this, and steam acted like it was updating the game. Then every time I tried to launch the game, it said it was still in 1.3! I restarted steam, restarted my computer, several other things, and it was still 1.3. So when you don't want it to update and TELL IT SPECIFICALLY NOT TO, IT FORCES AN UPDATE, but when YOU WANT IT to update IT DOESN"T UPDATE!!!!!!

DIE STEAM! Seriously, does anyone know if ANYONE exists who actually LIKES steam? DIE!!!!!

In your Widescreen Fixer manual settings, try changing unchecking the "Automatically Detect Resolution" checkbox, then DO THIS:

Change "Display Count:" to "3" (it might be defaulted to "1").

I had this same issue, after I changed Display Count to 3, it was just a matter of tweaking the Uncorrected Resolution values.

*Edit*
I got it working perfectly.

Instructions:
-Uncheck "Automatically Detect Resolution"
-Change Display Count to "3"
-Make sure your Corrected Resolution is correct (This seems to be the only one that matters.
-Now for the kicker. Go to C:/My Documents/Games/Skyrim/SkyrimPrefs. Edit the SkyrimPrefs .txt file and change the "iSizeW=" value to be whatever your correct "Corrected Resolution" value is. Example: iSize W = 6076
-Save SkyrimPrefs.
-Launch Skyrim with having Widescreen Fixer already open and it should be perfect!

Hope this wasn't confusing and helps anyone having trouble!
