I've currently got a 8800gts card and at somepoint i managed to have my 22" lcd and 42" lcd setup in dual screen. This was with seperate resolutions on each screen 1680x1050 and 1920x1080, with my mouse allowed to transfer from one screen to the next.


This was done by choosing the 5th option in nvidia control panel under set up multiple displays. However now there's only 4 options in that section so i can no longer have it set up this way?????

i believed it was the 162.15 drivers which allowed me to do it but doesn't work on that or the 162.18's for xp. Can someone tell me which version i need to get this option back???
 
are you gonna loose a lot of performance especially with the newer 8800 sries cards going to those older drivers??????

I have managed it with the newer ones but the option has now gone, and no metter which set i use it just doesn't want to work.
 
well after having a play I know have it up and running using the 162.18 drivers.

ended up needing a complete removal of both nvidia drivers and ntune. Then after the restart insalled the 162.18, and on reboot nvidia multiscreen setup launched and had the dual screen option I needed.

Now to get BF2142 to work on the LCD like all my other games do.
