Enabling Dual Monitor mode for Nvdia GX2

jolli · January 9th, 2007, 04:36 AM

Hi Guys,

Have been a fan of the optimized drivers since day one, great work and many thanks.

Since i have moved away from a single GPU device and gone with the GX2 i have noticed that im not able to enable the dual monitor mode. The Standard nvdia drivers allow you to do this from the Nvdia control panel, under 3D settings, Multi GPU setting or something like that. With the optimized drivers it seems that the advacne control panel has not been enabled. Is there a reason for this or am i missing something? Is this something that can be renabaled for the GX2 cards out there?

Any help would be great.

Thanks in advacne

I have the same problem

With NGO NVIDIA Optimized Driver 1.9137 everything works fine.
After install, reboot, nVidia Display Optimizer starts and could choose Dual View.

in each driver above the programm don`t start and in Nvidia Advaned Controlpannel the option is not showed / enabeld. The only thing to choose is "single monitor"

Could anybody help me?

Ciao

Sure.

Problem with NGO optimised driver. Solution De-install

I installed the latest driver from nvidia.com and could choose between:

Full 3D Power (SLI-Mode) Single Monitor

AND

itsy-bitsy-tiny 3D Power / Multi-Monitor

Not to mention every reboot after changing the Modes....

Thanks nVidia / Windows XP.
