Triple display adapters?

I have a 2010 Mac Pro with the 5870 GPU.
My displays are:
- 27" Apple
- 2x 23" DVI LG
I could use some help in figuring out which adapters will allow me to run all three.
Thanks!

HT4279- Mac Pro (Early 2009), Mac Pro (Mid 2010): Supported display configurations
The Apple 27 inch has a Mini DisplayPort that plugs right in.
The first of those DVI displays connects to the DVI port.
Short term: Since it is only 23 wide, it is likely to be under 1920 wide, and can use a single-Link DVI cable to save money now (but the cable will not be useful for a wider display later.)
Long Term: Shop REALLY hard for a Dual-Link DVI cable that is also cheap.
The second DVI display will need an adapter or a converter.
Short Term: Mini DisplayPort to Single-Link DVI adapter is all you need for now. That adapter is MUCH cheaper because it forces the Mini DisplayPort into "Single-Link DVI compatability mode"
Long Term: If you ever want to run 3 DVI displays, you may have to spring for the Dual-Link converter. But the cost is so much higher I would wait until you were forced to do it.

Dual/Triple Displays on MacBook Pro 9,1 (Matrox?)

I just picked up a MacBook Pro (Model MD103LL/A) last night and I'd like to hook up two to three 23" LG DVI displays. I'm told the Matrox Dual or Triple Head2Go adapters will work, but there are mixed reviews from Mac owners on newegg and amazon. I'd love to hear from other MacBook Pro users who have used this setup to drive multiple monitors. Also, I'm wondering if a GT650 with 512MBs of memory can handle three monitors.
Please post your comments here. Thanks for your help.

Got w7 install disc working again, installed everything again, ran apple updates agian, and now windows freezes on boot again. I have a feeling the latest windows iTunes update is the culprit somehow (when my machine bugged out initially that was the only bootcamp related software I updated).

Problems Setting up triple Display

Hi Folks, after some help
Recently tried setting up a triple display set up on Mac pro with ATI Radeon HD 5770 from the single display previously used.
I have 2 new Samsung B1930 monitors connected through Mini Display Port to VGA apple connectors in the 2 Slots and my old Samsung B2430 connected up through the DVI.
What i hoped to achieve is
Left B1930 extended desktop
Middle: B2430 Main screen with Dock etc
Right B1930 Extended Screen
What i have is the left B1930 as the main screen (inc Dock) and the Middle B2430 and righ B1930 as the extension. Is it only possible to extend one way? or is there a way to extend left and right.
Cheers in advance

Ignore, completely thick user! Put your glasses on and Drag the white bar. Does blaming a small 19" monitor help

Photoshop crashing with 2 different display adapters

I am having trouble with Photoshop CC.
My laptop is a Sony Vaio Z Series model SVZ131190X. The internal display adapter is an Intel HD Graphics 4000, this is the Driver Node Strong Name from the device properties:
oem6.inf:ATI.Mfg.NTamd64.6.1:iIVBM1ML_PROXY:8.961.1.0:pci\ven_8086&dev_0166&subsys_90a5104 d
This display adapter drives 1 of my external displays (it also drives the laptop's display).
The Vaio has a docking station which has a second display adapter, an AMD Radeon HD 7670M. This is the Driver Node Strong Name from the device properties:
oem6.inf:ATI.Mfg.NTamd64.6.1:ati2mtag_Vancouver_PXAI:8.961.1.0:pci\ven_1002&dev_6740&subsy s_90a5104d
With both display adapters active Photoshop displays the splash screen, begins initialization, and then stops working. Windows asks if I want to debug it and the app closes. I can disable the monitors from either display adapter and Photoshop starts fine. Once Photoshop is running I can re-enable the monitors I disabled and it continues to work, I can move Photoshop from one screen to another and back again with no issue. My current setup is using both monitor outputs on the docking station, the VGA port is plugged into a Samsung 191t, the HDMI port is plugged into a ViewSonic VA2246M-LED (with an HDMI to DVI cable). The internal laptop monitor is not active (the lid is closed) and attached to the VGA port on the side of it is another ViewSonic VA2246M-LED.
The OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, SP1. It is the Sony OEM install of Windows aside from updates that have been installed since I bought it (xmas of 2012).
This is the Driver Node Strong Name for the Docking Station:
machine.inf:GENDEV_SYS.NTamd64:NO_DRV:6.1.7601.17514:*pnp0c15
Here is the system info from Photoshop when it is running (started with the monitor on the Intel HD adapter disconnected). When the 3rd monitor is activated after starting Photoshop the System Info dialog sees that monitor as Display 3 (the system info once the 3rd monitor is activated is pasted below this):

Your video card drivers are crashing because they are over 2 years old, and buggy.
Go to the GPU maker's website and update the drivers.

Is is possible to Triple Display from the New MacMini

Is it possible to run a triple display on a MacMini with the intel HD 4000 chipset (which according to Intel is triple monitor capable).
I would assume one display would run off the HDMI and the other two from the Thunderbolt Port.
If it is possible three displays, is it possible to daisy chain two MiniDisplayport monitors from the Thunderbolt port. I know it will run one MiniDP but am unsure if it will run 2.

You can use a splitter for one output but yo have top mirror those displays.
You need a USB video adopter like this one to add a third independent monitor

I cant update my display adapters

hey guys. was on here earlier and someone mentioned to me that i need drivers if i go into device manage, open display adapters, and it says "standard VGA graphics adapter". well it does and that gentalmen seems to have logged and consummed his day with other priorities. so my question is this, how do i update or get download and install these drivers? or change that to something else? an and all help is apprecieated . thx and have a good day guys!
my model # is g7-2269wm. i must also add im running W7 after my HD failed with w8 for the second time.
idk if this helps or not but this is ids for standard VGA graphics adapter

Hi: Please see my reply to your other post at the link below...I was out most of the day and just got back... http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/DRIVERS/m-p/5128026#M298907

T510 - Device Manager showing multiple Display Adapters

I recently started experiencing a problem with a Java application locking up when moving windows from the laptop screen to an external monitor. One of the things we discovered during troubleshooting is that I am showing 2 Display Adapters:
Intel(R) HD Graphics - running the Laptop Screen
NVIDIA NVS 3100M - running the external Screen
Is this correct? I now also know why when using the NVIDIA Control Center it only shows the one monitor.

I'm not joking.
In BIOS (press F1 key when you see turn on the computer and see the Thinkpad screen) you can select the different graphics mode of the machine. As you are keenly aware, the machine does have 2 graphics processors.
Under Display:
Selecting the Integrated option in BIOS shuts off the nVIDIA graphics card and uses the lower power Intel graphics 3000 on the CPU. This limits graphics performance, but allows for longer battery operation and full CPU speed on battery.
Selecting the Discrete option in BIOS forces the system to use the nVIDIA card. This improves graphics performance, allows you to use multiple monitors, but decreases CPU performance while using battery and reduces battery life.
Selcting Optimus allows software or the user to determine which graphics processor to use "on the fly" so that power budget and GPU performance are balanced for the workload.

T420 - Triple display not working

So, according to this page: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-76617.html , the T420 I have is supposed to support two external displays as well as the laptop display as follows:
ThinkPad-only Triple Display Configuration:
1st Display: Active ThinkPad display
2nd Display: VGA analog monitor attached to the ThinkPad VGA analog port.
3rd Display: DisplayPort monitor attached to the ThinkPad DisplayPort
However, when I connect both external displays, it will switch off one of the external monitors (the first one connected).
Using display port to HDMI cable for monitor 1, VGA for monitor 2. Both are verified working as external monitors with the T420, just not at the same time.
I've looked through the BIOS and display properties to no avail.
Is this actually possible without a docking station?
-B

Only a laptop with a discrete NVIDIA graphics card, will support those configurations. If you just have the onboard Intel graphics, then I bet you'll only be able to drive two without a dock. With a dock, you still may be able to drive three monitors (including the ThinkPad's LCD).
BTW, I found even with an NVIDIA discrete graphics option, that page you refer to is incorrect (else I have a problem with my docking station). It says you can drive three monitors with "Any combination of the following" when after much trial and error, I determiend one has to be a VGA analog connection.

Multiple Display Adapters - Why??

Hi guys,
Got me a new W520. See something odd I don't understand... In Device Manager, I have two Display Adapters:
Intel HD Graphics Family
NVIDIA Quadro 2000M
I am by no means a hardcore graphics user and I am not a gamer, but I added the 2000M when ordering because, well... Why not? Anyway, the first thing I did to this thing was rebuild it with a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro x64. At some point, I realized the Intel graphics were not installed and as a result, I had NO video. So...
Why are there two graphics cards?
Why do the Intel drivers need to be operational with the NVIDIA there?
How can I even tell what is actually driving my displays??!!
Which brings me to...
This laptop is docked 80% of the time. Connected are three 24" LCDs. LCDs 1 & 2 are connected directly to DVI ports on the dock. LCD 3 is connected using a Lenovo USB2DVI Adapter.
All run at 1920x1200 resolution and overall work fine, although I do sometimes detect flickering and "waviness".
I just wanna get the most out this system; graphically and otherwise. It's running the SSD HDD and 8GB RAM, so combined with the NVIDIA, this thing should be a beast. The NVIDIA Control Panel doesn't seem to actually have any settings I could adjust even if I should or wanted to. And in the programs list under NVIDIA, all I have are the options to enable or disable "3D Vision". Don't even know what that is.
So, what should I be doing here? Anything? Nothing? Thanks!

I'm not joking.
In BIOS (press F1 key when you see turn on the computer and see the Thinkpad screen) you can select the different graphics mode of the machine. As you are keenly aware, the machine does have 2 graphics processors.
Under Display:
Selecting the Integrated option in BIOS shuts off the nVIDIA graphics card and uses the lower power Intel graphics 3000 on the CPU. This limits graphics performance, but allows for longer battery operation and full CPU speed on battery.
Selecting the Discrete option in BIOS forces the system to use the nVIDIA card. This improves graphics performance, allows you to use multiple monitors, but decreases CPU performance while using battery and reduces battery life.
Selcting Optimus allows software or the user to determine which graphics processor to use "on the fly" so that power budget and GPU performance are balanced for the workload.

Display Adapters included?

I just sold my early 2008 macbook air and can't wait to get the new macbook air! They're awesome computers and I'd reccommend them to anyone who puts a premium on portability and great customer service on Apple's part. But aside from that, I'm a little confused. ...so there's NO display adapters included with the new Macbook Air?? Why would they not include them this time? I mean, just why? Especially when they've just introduced their new Mini DisplayPort which no other device a user would need to hook-up to has, except their new cinema displays..? Have I been misinformed or does the computer really not come with any display adapters....? I mean i'm not asking for full cables or anything, but at the very least, an adapter (which has always been included with their new notebooks) would be nice and expected... just really confused about this one....

It's the way of Apple lately -- things that "always used to be included" are no longer included -- there are no adapters with the MBA. There is no dock included with the iPhone 3G, which used to be included with the first gen. Their iPods always used to come with a Dock...those were dropped too eventually.
The reality is, 90 percent of the users don't use those things. While it's nice to have them included, Apple makes more money from the 10 percent of users who DO need them, charging them extra for them. Available at the Apple Retail Stores, or online.

Satellite L850D - Display Adapters Code 43 error

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L850D and I installed the pc game Sims 3. For a few months, the game was working fine with minimum glitches occasionally until one day the game froze so I rebooted my laptop.
When I tried to open the game again, it came up with "The operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -43) I did some research and found out that my Display Adapters had problems and when I opened it it said "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"
How do I fix this?
And if I have to re-install the drivers, where can I get the download?

If you have European notebook model you can download driver from http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
Try to reinstall display driver.

Use all three display adapters - N560GTX

Hi All,
I just upgraded to a N560GTX Twin Frozr II/OC and wanted find out if there is a way to use all three display adapters (2 DVI and 1 HDMI)
Does anyone know if this is possible and how would you go about doing it?

No, that's not possible. With that vga you are limited to two displays.

G550 Multiple Display Adapters - Why??

Hey guys
I am running a G550 64bit Windows7. When I restart the computer it boots fine till "starting windows" screen the screen then goes blank. Not dead just without video.
I run in safe mode and it boots as should. Now from her ei started to get pretty determined so I did a bunch of research and after long found myself here..
In the device manager there are two display adapters listed. Both the same "mobile Intel 4 series express chipset family"
I deleted one and rebooted no issues. Still got screen resizes and flashes periodically. And now each reboot 2nd adapter reinstalls and I am left with the same problem mentioned above
what I am asking
is this a virus? How to remove
(I cleaned the registry stopped unwanted startup autoruns malwarebytes run antivirus run Microsoft security essentials)
Thank you for your help.

Hi mynameisjd,
Thanks for posting and welcome to the Lenovo Community,
Am sorry to hear about the issue that you’re facing and I’d like to ask you if you faced this problem from a recent time?
And as I understand from your explanation that when you uninstalled the graphic driver it worked fine so I’d like to ask you to try to perform a recovery for the system to get the machine back as a brand new machine,
If you’d like to take backup from your data as all files on C: will be erased as this process will return the machine back to the initial state if your machine came with preinstalled operating system and there is changes on the operating system nor the partitions of the HDD sizes,
And please connect the charger and the battery and then please press on the one key recovery button while the machine completely off and then see if you can windows loading files and then you will get the options for the recovery and kindly check the below link for the recovery steps:
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=HT062552
Hope the information helps. Let us know.
Regards
Soha

Triple display on W520

My brother ordered a W520 with the 1920x1080p screen option. He has two Dell 20" (1600x1200) monitors from years ago, which have DVI & VGA connectors.
Can the W520 run in triple display mode, with built in display, one monitor hooked up with VGA cable, and the other monitor hooked up with Displayport to DVI cable?
Or does this require some kind of dock? Or at the very least, can it run on two monitors with the lid closed?

Solved!

Hi, Volt,
    This subject has been explored in depth on this board. To keep it short, yes, you can indeed drive two external monitors at the resolutions you mentioned without the dock, plus the internal makes three.
