September 16, 200916 yr Commercial Member I posted on ATI's site but didnt receive any responses....anyone here seen this?Hello -I am using a 3 monitor set up. Up until this week, I was using an HD4800 series that came with my Dell XPS 730 as the main video card (center monitor) and a much older Radeon card (cant even remember what it was) to run the left and right monitors.This worked very well all the time. I used the left monitor for FSX 2D panels and the right monitor for charts and stuff.I just bought the HD4850 and now use that as my main card. I then use the older 4800 series card for the other two monitors.Here's the problem:Whenever I start FSX, and the main screen pops up (the one where you select the airplane, airport, weather etc) I get a graphics corruption after about 15-30 seconds and it crashes my whole system. However, if I drag the FSX screen to one of the other two monitors before this happens, it works fine.FSX itself works flawlessly as long as I can get past the main screen.I am using Vista64 SP2Intel i7 2.93 ghz5gb ramI am using the latest catalys driver Noah Bryant
September 17, 200916 yr Shouldn't one of the monitors act as a primary? Maybe FSX is trying to access a specific monitor.
September 17, 200916 yr Author Commercial Member Yes the 4850 is selected as the primary monitor in both windows and fsx. I should mention that I obviously run fsx windowed Noah Bryant
