I've run triple monitors with FSX in the past using a GTX680 and haven't had this issue before. Wondering if anyone has any ideas.

 

Current setup for surround:

3x Asus VE258Q Monitors

EVGA GTX 680 Classified

Drivers: 310.70

 

Problem:

Able to run FSX across all three monitors without a problem, but only in fullscreen. Running FSX in windowed mode, I cannot drag the window borders any larger than 1920x1080 (native resolution of each monitor) in order to expand the window across all three monitors.

 

I'm able to drag the window from monitor to monitor with no problem. However, when I grab the borders of the window, I can enlarge it, but only up to 1920x1080 (maximize button only increases it to this resolution as well). Have custom resolutions setup for bezel correction.

 

Any ideas? I've never had this problem before. Will try rolling back drivers tomorrow, but was curious if anyone had any suggestions. My preference is to run FSX in windowed mode in surround.

 

Thanks!

Disregard. Solved the problem. Setting within nVidia surround that I needed to change. For some reason in the past, it always defaulted to on, except this time (possibly new drivers).

 

Oh well, off to the skies.

As I am having the same issue you described in your initial post, and perhaps for the benefit of anyone else in the future that might have this issue, do you mind letting us know what setting you changed with nVidia Surround to make this work? I've searched and tried many combinations with no success :(

 

Thanks,

Andreas

Open the nVidia Control panel, and in the menubar: Desktop -> Surround Displays, make sure "Maximize Windows Across All Displays" is checked.

 

As I'm travelling right now, can't take a screenshot of my panel. However, here is one from the nVidia forums:

 

 

Hope that solves it for you.

Thanks so much! Seems so easy once someone shows you the location Never thought the menu would contain options not available in the option tree list.

 

Thanks again!
