Corinthian 0 Posted February 5, 2001 I think I read on this forum about a bug in Windows 2000 that would not let videocards like the GeForce with TwinView and G400 DualHead display different resolutions on two connected monitors. Has this been fixed ? I was thinking of replacing my two videocard solution with a GeForce TwinView, but the monitors would have to be in different resoultion (17" and 15").

Corinthian 0 Posted February 8, 2001 Surely someone on this forum must be using two monitors on a graphic card with dual monitor output ? Share this post Link to post
Four and Twenty 0 Posted February 8, 2001 to my knowledge it has not yet been changed. I have built quite a few systems with the g400 and the g450 and i did not find a work around for this issue. It is not exactly a bug persay it is that win2k looks at the card as one big wide desktop not two individual ones. What i would recomend is that you buy a more powerful geforce pure and a cheap pci board for the second monitor. I got my pci card for $22.50 including shipping I think that i got it a http://www.compgeeks.com/ ------------------ My System Dell Demension XPS T500 Triple Boot Windows 2000 Pro 2195 Windows Whistler Pro 2296 Windows Millennium Final Retail PIII @ 500 Mhz (with after market heatsink and dual fan) 512 Megs Ram Guillemot Maxi Gammer Cougar (TNT2 M64 w/ 32 Megs of RAM) Matrox Millennium PCI (w/ 4 Megs of RAM for second monitor) 3Com Etherlink XL 10/100 Ethernet Card Abit Hot Rod Pro ATA-100 RAID Controler 2 x 12.6 Gig Maxtor Hard Disks RAID 0 (for system) 1 76.3 Gig Maxtor Hard Disk (for storage) 40X LG CD Rom Drive 100 Mb Iomega Internal Zip Drive MS Explorer Mouse MS Natural Keyboard Pro And not a single peice of software that I actually own Share this post Link to post
