Dual monitors with Win 7 - doesn't work

I have multiple monitors (3) and have been using FF 3+. When I upgraded it won't display right (flickers, black screen until I mouse over, etc.).
I tried to regress but I cannot go back to v.3+ It only shows FF4 as being available, even after deleting the product.
Unfortunately, I had to stoop to using IE (shudder!).
I'm running Win7 (64-bit), 4 Gig RAM, NVIDEA GeForce video cards, 2 - 19" and one 24" monitors.
This setup worked fine with previous version of FF. Please help me get off IE!

  • Dual Monitors with GPU and Motherboard not working

    Hey guys, just wondering if anyone else could help me out.
    So, I decided to hook up an old monitor of mine to my rig today and, lo and behold, the monitor isn't being detected by my computer.
    I've already got a monitor running through my GPU (NVidia GTX 960) via DVI.
    Currently tried connecting my second (old) monitor to my motherboard with DVI as well, but it isn't being detected.
    I went into my bios and forced my integrated graphics on, but when I checked in the device manager, it said my VGA graphics adapter "Cannot start (Error Code 10)"
    Also tried updating VGA graphics adapter drivers, but I had the latest drivers already.
    I'm not sure if that's related to the issue, but I thought it'd be worth mentioning.
    (What's also worth mentioning is that I'm a complete casual when it comes to computer building and such, lol)
    Motherboard is a Gigabyte F2A88XM-HD3, supports VGA, DVI and HDMI. 
    Monitor that I'm trying to connect supports both DVI and VGA. 

    A lot of the 960's don't have 2 DVI's. However most have an additional HDMI and DisplayPort. I recommend you get an adapter from amazon or something. Just make sure that it will convert HDMI or DP to DVI. Usually amazon products have a good amount
    of questions already answered by buyers.
    Interesting that they'd go that route, I guess I just assumed since my 760 has two.
    I've set up dual monitors using one DVI and one HDMI before, but I ran into issues with screen sizing. Despite having two identical monitors set at the same resolution the mouse would not transmit over to the second monitor at the same height as it was on
    the first, so I had to buy an adapter like Joshua suggested.

  • Anyone grasped dual monitors with Lion yet?

    I know it's fairly early days, but I cannot seem to get dual monitors with full screen Apps sussed out. It seems the second monitor doesn't like to join in the fun.

    It's absolutely ridiculous.  One of the key selling points of full screen apps was to take away the distractions of the window furniture, menu and dock - letting you focus on what's important, now what do we get to distract us - in my case a 1600x1200 linen pattern on my second monitor.  Daft.
    FWIW - I don't think the 'film reel' approach mentioned above would be a good a solution - as it assumes the 2 full screen apps to want to view are adjacent, and since Mission Control rearranges spaces to suit the 2 apps may not continue to be adjacent.  Surely though it would be easy enough to allow a different full screen app on the second screen (which would be excellent imho), I tend to have a development window open and a browser on the second screen - having both full screen is exactly what I'd want to view.  Alternatively, having the second screen as a plain 'Desktop' space would be acceptable (at least then I could open the apps I want in a non-fullscreen manner).
    I don't think this is going to limitted to edge cases either - earlier today I was typing out an email, and needed to calculate a quick sum to include (mail was fullscreen) - in order to call up calculator I need to go : Mission Control, Switch to Desktop Space, Locate calculator, Perform calculation, remember it, mission control, switch to Mail Space, type calculation answer - ironically one can't even trigger Spotlight and do the calculating in there - as menubar is disabled when creating an email - but anyway, I digress.
    Other than this (admittedly major) issue, I find full screen apps a great way to work - and even with this issue, they're a huge boon when I'm using the laptop sans extra monitor.
    Regards,
    Ryan

  • Dual Monitor with PXI-8108

    I am trying to use dual monitors with a PXI-8108 and the NI DVI splitter as described here
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/0E993D33675CD46A862572D50072C6A3
    There must be some software update I need because I don't not have an option for the second monitor?  Does anyone
    know what I may need to update, possibly the graphics driver, and where to find it?
    I have (2) mobile intel 4 series express chipset family listed under my device manager
    driver version 6.14.10.5009

    Are you trying to use three monitors with the setup in question there? Adding another set of splitters could impact the signal quality depending on your monitors and needs.
    I'm not aware of a specific test with that setup, but given the correct adapter types and correct signal sources on each adapter, I would imagine you may be able to get it to work.
    Again, as with the above posts, reference the linked Discussion Forum thread in the first post here, as you are going to be looking at similar questions in that case.

  • T61p dual monitor with docking station, maximum resolution

    I wonder what is the maximal resolution one can get with the quadro fx 570m. I specially want to reach the 2560x1600+2560x1600 with two 30'' monitors. Does anyone know about it or have experience with it?
    dual monitor with docking station

    You will need the huge docking station with Dual-Display Port & DVI. Then it should work, but you will only be able to use 2 displays at once (one external+laptop LCD or 2 external). But I think you already know that.
    VGA on such resolution would be suicidal and i doubt it would even work.

  • I want to run dual monitors with my hp compaq dc5800 small from e7400 @ 2.8ghz

    I want to run dual monitors with my hp compaq dc5800 Small From e7400 @ 2.8ghz.  Will it work and what video card do you recomend?

    Yes, I see that I was in error when I posted that.  Sorry.
    The quickspecs for any dc5800 state that it has a:
    (1) low profile PCIe x16 (SDVO/ADD2) slot.
    Accordingly, the only card you can install would be this one...

  • Help - How to install Win XP in dual boot with Win 7 (first installed)?

    Hi everybody!
    I'm having some difficult in install a win xp in dual boot with win 7 (which came with the G550 notebook).
    I modified the D: (Lenovo) partition to a primary partition to install the XP.  Also I installed the EasyBCD to manange the boots and both S.O. load fine. 
    The problem is that Win XP is seeing a partition (the first partition on disk) with 200MB that is hidden for Win 7 !   So this partition takes the C: letter in XP and mess all the configuration once that many programs uses the C: as a default letter. 
    The disk is divided in (aprox):
    200 MB hidden partition (from factory)
    160GB with Win 7 installed
    40GB with Win XP installed
    19GB hidden partition (Recovery - from factory)
    Is anyone has some idea who to solve this problem or make install XP from the beginning without problems?
    Thank a lot!

  • Dual monitors with macbook closed

    i am running dual monitors with Macbook Pro and would like for my Macbook to be closed.  How do I change that setting?

    How do I change that to two separate extended screens.
    I don't believe you can. Check with Matrox, but my understanding is that the external monitors running through the Matrox box will always function as a single extended desktop in two parts.
    If you do check with Matrox about this, please post back with your findings — I'll be interested to know, whether I'm right or not.

  • ITunes 10.4 full screen with Win7-64bit doesn't work correctly.

    iTunes 10.4 full screen with Win7-64 doesn't work correctly. I have the Windows taskbar on the left side of my screen. Maximized iTunes is panned to the left.

    Same issue here. When the Windows taskbar is position on the top of the screen and then the iTunes windows is maximised, it's position is as if the Windows taskbar is at the bottom of the screen so the top of the iTunes window sits under the taskbar.
    For those wanting a workaround, hold shift and right click the iTunes icon in the taskbar/quick launch bar and click restore, at least then you can adjust it to be full screen manually.

  • LAN with TCP/IP doesn't work

    Hello,
      I have a problem with my laptop IdeaPad S10e 4187-5PG: LAN with TCP/IP doesn't work, after I have updated all the drivers to the latest ones form the Lenovo site (except BIOS update). I tried to check if LAN worksby sending a ping to the IP address and that is OK, but when Isend a ping to the default gateway it failes. A ping to the DNS server also fails.Could you please help me because I tried everythinh and I can't getthe LAN to work.
    Thank you very much

    Perhaps you could describe you network in a little more detail.
    Is this a Workgroup home network or are you connected to a Domain server?
    If this is a workgroup are you connecting to the internet via a cable or DSL router?
    Do other computers on your network connect OK?
    Has your S10e ever worked properly on the network?
    Are you connecting via a wireless access point or LAN cable? 
    What do you Ping on and from where?
    Can you Ping OK on another networked computer?
    Open up a DOS Prompt (aka command prompt, DOS Box). and type IPCONFIG  /ALL <enter>. Do you get a compatible IP address and subnet mask? You should also get the gateway IP address.

  • Simplest way to support dual monitor with HP 2570P

    Hi,
    I would like to be able to use my dual monitors with my HP 2570P. I do not yet have a docking station. 
    What is the simplest way to support dual monitor display with my  HP 2570P ? 
    I'm not looking for mirror i am looking for an extended desktop. I can live with out the laptop display if required.
    I know there was a previous post about the 2540 but I'm not sure if the outcome applied to 2570p too.
    thanks
    Richard. 

    There is no truly simple way except use of a docking station. 
    You can use the VGA port or the display port. None of the manuals I have seen assert that you can use them both simultaneously. 
    There is no a previous post about the 2540 in regards to using a dual external display setup in the forum that I have seen.
