Trouble adding 5th monitor

Featured Replies

I've got two video cards..primary is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580,,,secondary is VisionTek Radeon 4320. Off the primary I'm running a trible head to go with three 32' monitors as the main display(1) also off of that comes a monitor for a vrinsight gps-5 (2). The secondary card runs an 8' (3) monitor for the PFD...and a regular 12' monitor for MFD, engin, and comm (4). I want to add a (5)th generic monitor for WX radar....but when I connecet it via HDMI...of which I still have a port on either card, it shows up in windows as being connected but its gray...and of course no output to the screen...I can't "extend the desktop" to it. I did get it to work once...but lost one of the other monitors; and I also can't remember what I did. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Jeffrey

Thumbs up just for you amazing configuration :Applause: I think that a SLI will be better for you, with same graphic cards. But you must warm up your credit card if it's a 580 SLI :Shocked:

Thanks Julian...that is a possability... but I'm not done beating my head against the wall with what I've got. There's got to be a way.
...I think that a SLI will be better for you...
AFAIK, with SLI the outputs of the second card are rendered inop, so this might be a factor worth considering.Cheers,- jahman.
