TH2GO Windows 7 Drivers are there :D

Version number x64_gxm-veos_2_06_00_026_whql,

But stil can get no high resolutions under Windos 7_x64 with This one and the 191.07_w7_64 Nvidia driver.

Back to 181.71 win 7-64 :cry: and the Beta GXM driver

I just don't get it, I can get 5040x1050 on 191.07. I feel sorry for others who can't. :(

When you install the new video driver, once its installed and the GXM is installed, have you tried rebooting the computer and then right clicking on the desktop, choose Screen resolution, and see if 5040x1050 is there?

It is just so bizarre. It is totally easy for me, even when I updated to the latest BETA NV drivers it required no restart and (although the res went back to 3860) 5040 was still there...

Nothing has changed.
now i am angry

Guess it's working on an "all or nothing" basis... And I'm definitely in the Nothing league.

New HDD, new install of Win7 x64.
191.07, 6.56 firmware, GXM 2.06.
"A Windows error has occurred" for 3x1680x1050, 3x1440x900.
Multiple reboots/cold boots don't help, custom res's don't help, the best I can get is 3x 1280x800 but the scaling is wrong, whatever the scaling option in nvidia cp.

Sometimes the Wizard lists only 1680x1050@60 Hz with two different 'pixel rates' or sth, now I have 1680x1050@57 and @60 and no pixel rates. Heck, I don't even wanna know what that means. All I know is that it all failed, yet again. :cry:

I'm using 182.50 with the beta powerdesk in Win 7 x64.

I was going to do the upgrade, once seing this, I guess I stay put, no upgrade till someone confirm it's working

If i could have a $ for every thread ive read, that starts off with "the new drivers work!" only to read on and be disappointed and find others are having problems, id almost have enough for a Big Mac meal lol

Im in the "doesnt work for me" camp. Still running on 178 drivers (from memory!) but im changing MB's this weekend and doing a full clean install of Vista 64 bit (some gaming software ive found having trouble with Win 7 on my other PC). Ill give it a try, messing around with different versions of the drivers and GXM i think, Ill see if my problem is fixed with a clean install of the OS.

Keep the reports coming!

EDIT: 195.39 Win7 64 bit & powerdesk 2.06 work great so far, pretty smooth

ok I took a gamble because I have a new rigs comming in next week

it work, but at 59Hz ... wery weird



before upgrade it run at 57hz

I can't help but wonder if its not hardware related somehow. I could always get 5040x1050 with the TH2G on my setup first time (if you include a reboot after driver install) regardless of the operating system and Nvidia drivers and even regardless of the video card I am using. - Disclaimer, only after the 5040x1050 firmware update was applied to the TH2O, of course.

Eg:
Constants
Motherboard - ASUS P5K-SE
CPU - Intel Q8300
PSU - Generic 550W
RAM - 4GB Kingston DDR2 800
HDD - Samsung 250GB SATA
GXM - V2.05

Surely the PSU, RAM, and HDDs are irrelevant though, but the motherboard chipset may or may not be?

Variables
Video card - first a Palit 8800GT OC then a Sapphire GTX275
OS - Vista 32 bit then 7 64 bit
Video card drivers - older version 8 drivers with the 8800GT OC then 191.07 with the GTX275

Just doesn't seem to make sense, so it has to be something a little bit unusual to blame I think? Video card memory?
