Widescreen Gaming Forum

THANK YOU!

I just got the TH2Go 2 days ago, and just today got my third monitor. I was unable to get 5040 x 1050 (from PowerDesk) to work until I tried this.

My only problem is that yesterday, I had successfully set up a dual 1980 x 1080 (x2), so that is my native resolution because I can't get the Powerdesk Wizard to get me through the 3 monitor setup without reporting the Windows error.

So none of my games list 5040 x 1050.

But, I'm not doing too bad compared to the battles some of you frontier fighters have had to put up with. Thanks to everyone for their efforts.

1980?

5040x1050=1680x1050x3... m I missing somthing ?

I didnt understand your post realy...

Thank you ... elior77 ... :twothumb

I have only been able to get Triple-Wide in Win 7 64-bit with the 181.71 drivers and I've been so busy of late that I gave up on Triple-Wide ... I went back to 3 x 5:4 monitors.
So ...
I already had the latest firmware, Powerdesk and drivers installed but I was running 3 x 5:4 monitors.
I switched to my 3 x 16:10 screens and followed your directions from "run the wizard for 1680x1050x1 @ 60Hz" in point 3.
In the custom resolution settings I set the Vertical refresh rate at 59.400 and all worked fine ...
I now have 5040x1050 @ 59.400Hz working in Win 7 with 195.62 drivers ... :surroundsmiley

Here's some links to the latest firmware, Powerdesk and drivers for those looking for them ...

Edit: typo.

Newbie to this forum. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Most of the people here that run an i5 or an i7 are the ones having problems?

I, myself run a E8400 with Win7 and everything runs correctly with TH2G. The reason why I bring this up is because I was thinking of moving up to a i7. I believe I'm missing something that you guys know that I don't know that you guys know about. :hide

***Nothing to do with i5 or i7 systems***


go go go !

59.4Hz seems to work for you guyz, we got something going here !

Very happy to get all that love :)

Only thing wrong is the PowerDesk software and it's inability to setup the correct custom resolution for the respective monitors and GPUs people have. As Elior77 said, nothing to do with I6 or I7 systems.

So has anyone tried this with Vista 64 yet?

You have fairly similar hardware to me, but I haven't tried Vista, but to be honest I don't see why it would be different between V and 7.

All works for me untill I reboot, and martox says something like, your settign have changed please reboot...

I reboot, and I am back to 3840x1050

How many cust_modes , and customdisplay's are there? I found like 4 or 5

All you have to do is add _1 to all of them? Seems a little to good to be true...

true true it's true :)

do it and have fun !
