I just tried to set up three 24" monitors in a wrap-around fashion using FSX on a Windows Vista 64 bit system, using two, identical, high-end graphics cards installed (I think they were something like a Nvidia Gforce GTX 285?). Also a high-end Quad core CPU, 6 gig RAM.I read a few threads here on how this should be done:1. Using Control Panel add the 2nd and 3rd monitor displays so as to be one seamless view. Worked ok.2. While in FSX using the '[' key, create a new view and make it a separate window. Ok, no problem.3 Drag it over to one of other monitors and resize. Ok, I did that and looked ok but the minute I dragged the window over to the monitor it went black. And then FSX would crash? Tried this several times.Am I missing a step?Thx, Clutch

---------------------------Clutch- I know very little about FSX and even less about Vista so forgive the following questions-1. Can you drag the mouse cursor across all 3 mons- from far left to extreme right? If not, did you click on the "APPLY" button when setting up monitors 2 & 3 as part of the desktop?2. Are you using Full Screen? In my WIN XP/FS9 setup Full Screen is impossible!!!!! As a result, I use Windowed mode only but auto hide Menu & Task bars, change Desktop colour to black and Title Bars to black with dark green letters. Hard to tell it's not Full Screen.Alex Reid

Hi Alex,To answer your questions...yes, I can move the mouse completely across all three monitors (before I start FSX and during), and before I create the 2nd and 3rd views.Also, yes I am in window mode as I have the FSX taskbar in view on the top of my middle screen. Strange as I do see the new view in the newly created window but it only stays for a few seconds after I have dragged it over to the 2nd or 3rd monitor?!?! :( Would I need SP1, SP2 or Acceleration installed? Maybe a past bug that was corrected with an update?Clutch

------------------Clutch- I just Googled- "multi monitors vista 64". Looks like a lot of people are having trouble here. Somewhere I read that basic Win 7 will NOT have multi mon capability.I also refuse to apply software updates on the grounds that they will probably create more problems than they solve- I run FS9 1.0 and Win XP2002- SP 2.0 (2.0 accidentally snuck in before I could stop it!) Sorry I can't help further.Alex Reid
