Perfesser Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 After having this second monitor sitting on the desk for a year I finally worked up the courage to set it up. They're different sizes, ratios and resolutions I hooked it up and set it to horizontal span (one wide desktop). IL2 started up but was split between the two monitors. On a reboot another option came up to "configure independently from each other(dualview)". That got everything working as it should. Thanks to everyone who posted here, got some ideas and fixes.

Perfesser Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I'm still using XP and will continue till I upgrade to Win7. All the settings I used were in the nVidia control panel. Although as I said some options didn't come up until after I hooked up the second monitor and rebooted. I do have to minimize IL2 (windows key) to get the cursor to move to the second monitor.

Ash Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Thanks for the info Perfesser. I've used Catalyst Control Centre and have got the dual monitors working the same as yours with Silent Hunter4 but its still shutting off with Il2. I've opened a support ticket with ATI so maybe they can help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
