Hey

i cant get my system to run 5040 X 1050 the wizard show it avaliable but when i select it my screens come up with "OUT OF RANGE"

im am running

Geforce GTX 285
vista 32bit
driver 181.22
latest power desk
and 3 X CHIMEI 221D's

please Help, i want to throw my entire system out the window......... :x :x

Out of Range is a pretty straight forward way of saying that the refresh rate is not supported. AKA 57hz will not work.

You will probably have to go down to a resolution that uses 60Hz.

Acer P223Wad = Acer P223W ?

if so this my e the monitor i go with.

for that matter, what is the diff between the B223W and the P223W... boy these are confusing.

I need to know what resolution I can hope to achieve on a

Samsung 305T LCD.

It's a 30 inch monitor with a native res of 2560x1600.
Now I realize there's not enough bandwidth being pushed out of the system to achieve that res on each seperate screen.

But I am hoping to at least get the 1680x1050x3 at 57hz

I need to know if that resolution is achievable.

anyone know?

Thanks in advance.

3 x1680x1050 is the most you will get; cant see why you monitor wont run it but you can check for your self with 1 monitor by setting a custom resolution.

Samsung 2433BW...

When I attempt to force resolution to 5040x1050, the monitors will go into the resolution the first time after installing PowerDesk SE. When you check that status on the monitor menu though, each one is in 1680x1050 at 48hz rather than 57hz (as entered). After about 30 seconds, the screens go black with the window recommending a 1920X1200 60Hz resolution. You can press the Menu button to return the screen, but the black screen will come back 30 seconds later.

I attempted to remove and manually enter the Customer Resolutions, but they keep coming back as Failed Test, even though it didn't even attempt to test the resolution.

Anyone else working with Samsung 2433BWs?

They support 56-75Hz, so I need to find out why they drop down to 48Hz when going into 5040x1050 mode with TH2Go.

I heard Riva has a way to force resolutions as well. Anyone know anything about that?

When I set up the beta powerdesk, I'm using samsung 2253BW's and they drop down to 50 hz when running the wizard. Then it says "an error has occurred". No idea :cry:

Where can I get my grubby little paws on the beta PowerDesk?

I'm dying to know if the samsung 305T will support 1680x1050 at 57hz
I NEED to know.

Known Working:

Got the Samsung 2433BWs working. Had to downgrade to GeForce 175.19 drivers.

As for Samsung 305T, I can't find any specs with detailed refresh rates. I would suggest contacting Samsung (as I did before I bought my 2433BWs) and ask if the montior supports 1680x1050 at 57Hz (they'll most likely tell you the picture won't fit, but that's not an issue as long as the monitor will actually display a picture).

Working:
Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo SL 3260W (tested/used in combination with GTX295 and 182.06)
