multiple monitors problem

Post by CHAMELEON_D_H » Mon Sep 27, 2004 9:49 am

hi all,
i've been having a problem setting up multiple (3 to be exact) moniros on my pc....
up until now i had an 15" LCD monitor and my main desktop and a 21" PAL TV as a secondery monitor. i want to add a new 14" CRT monitor, but i cant find the option to do so... every time i try i can only use 2 of the 3, but all in the same time.....

specs:
Gforce Ti 4200 that has 3 screen outputs:
- 1 digital (converted to analog and goes to the LCD monitor
- 1 analog (CRT monitor)
- 1 SVideo (converted to RCA and goes to the TV)
*latest drivers d/led yesterday
WinXP pro SP1

the svideo cable is not another moniter persay. its more of a copy of whats on your main moniter. the card only supports 2 desktops. if u want to have 3 or more ull have to use multiple graphix cards.
