Add me to that i7 Statistic
Windows thinks the "recommended" is 1280x1024x3, and Aero won't work at higher resolutions.

2. Windows 7 Ultimate x64
3. The Beta one from somewhere around here
4. Latest

7. Intel Core i7 920
8. Asus P6T (Intel X58)
9. Nvidia 8800GT SLi
10. Nope, was added in automatically

1. DO YOU CURRENTLY HAVE 5040 WORKING? Yes
2. OS model & version: W7 x64 Pro retail
3. Matrox driver version: v64_gxm-veos_2_06_00_026_whql
4. Firmware version: vxp2k_THDE_v2.3.40.t6.56
5. Graphics driver make & version: Vista x64 182.50 WHQL
6. Monitor make & version: Dell 2209WA x3
7. CPU make/model: Intel i7 920
8. Motherboard chipset: EVGA x58 SLI LE
9. Graphx card make/model: Nvidia MSI 295 GTX
10. Did you have to put in a custom res via NVidia CPL? No
11. If you have 5040 working, what's your refresh freq? 59Hz


None of the newer Nvidia drivers works, with any combination of matrox software FOR ME. The 19x series has considerable issues in general IMO, 191 killed my 280 GTX and has a faulty fan/temp control, and 195 has GPU memory errors and causes BSODs.

In my previous rig, I had a 280 GTX, Intel Core 2 Duo E8500, ASUS Rampage Formula, 4GB RAM, and did manage to run 5040x1050 with some of the newer drivers (191 series), on W7 x64 Pro retail with latest and the previously released Matrox software.

This is not true. I run 191.07 with a Matrox TH2G and GTX275 on my Q9550 using Windows 7 64 bit at 5040x1050 will full aero functionality and never had an issue.

In my previous rig, I had a 280 GTX, Intel Core 2 Duo E8500, ASUS Rampage Formula mobo, and Nvidia 280 GTX, it did manage to run 5040x1050 with some of the newer drivers (191 series), on W7 x64 Pro retail with latest matrox software and the previous Vista release.

Er, you just said the newer drivers don't work and now you say they do in the same post?

So on your older Core 2 Duo machine it works with the latest drivers, and your newer i7 machine it doesn't...

It doesn't work on the 295 GTX for me at least, some of the newer drivers did however work with the 280 GTX. Different GPUs in different desktops as you can see by the quoted text.
