Nvidia Surround. Same sync Polarity, Res, Refresh rate not working.

[OCP]

Hi guys, was just trying to setup surround with 3 monitors:

Samsung S23A700D - set to 60hz + + polarity - D DVI
Samsung S27A750D - set to 60hz via custom resolution + + polarity - DP
LG IPS234 - set to 60hz + + polarity - HDMI
all 1080P.

Its given me the error 'Replace with different display. All Surrounding displays must support a common resolution, refresh rate, and sync polarity.

I'm not sure what else I need to do to get it to work? MY graphics card is GTX 780 atm.

Cheers

Strange issue and that should work just fine in surround. Maybe you need another D DVI lead but I am guessing.

I thought Nvidia surround required all monitors connected to the same type of input (i.e. DVI)?
Although that'd make surround impossible on 1 card, so maybe that's only for SLI Surround.

Just did some researching for my own curiosity and you can use any connections.

Available Ports & Adapters
The GeForce GTX 680 sports two DVI connectors, one HDMI connector, and one DisplayPort connector. In 2D Surround, gamers can use any of the four display connectors to power their Surround setup, and the fourth display connector for the Accessory Display.

Maybe reinstall drivers or try different drivers is worth a shot but other than that, not sure.

Yeah, I was thinking of 3D Surround.

I'll try reinstalling some drivers, I'm on the latest beta drivers ATM.

doesn't seem to be working, i've tried the available connection options via the surround tool from the nvidia site. could it be that the lg monitor is standard 60hz and the other two is downclocked from 120hz?
