Re: Vista 64 Aero problem w/ 3 monitors and 2 video cards...
does Aero use Dx10? the 7900 card doesnt support DX10. Here is a thread I just found on it, but it sounds like these cards have problems with Aero, which doesnt surprise me much. You may want to pick up an 8500 or 8600 card.

I guess I know what it is now and that I need a different vid card. You rock bro. Many MANY thanks for hunting that down. |

Then again, I could just OC it and get it to work apparently:
[ QUOTE ] I had issues with my 7950GT, to fix it I simply changed the core and memory clock rates, i moved mine up by a whole 10mhz, the problem went. Thanks, for the tip. I finally got my 7950GT GS to work in Vista. [/ QUOTE ] |

you are welcome, but don't take it as gospel.
You may want to try that card out in the primary slot with just one monitor to confirm. |

Re: Vista 64 Aero problem w/ 3 monitors and 2 video cards...
Tried and yeah, I'm stuck. Also, NibiTor isn't gonna run on my rig either...thanks to Vista 64 not allowing the driver...
And nTune doesn't show my 7900GT as being able to be OC'd since my 8800GT is the 'master' vid card. So unless there is another way to OC my secondary card (the 7900GT), I'm going to have to sell it and pick up an 8600GT to run my secondary monitors. And for those saying not to run Aero: Aero isn't the only place this "problem" rears its head. Whenever anything is done to alter the desktop on the one "problem child" monitor (not the monitors issue, mind you), it gets all scrambled. We're talking anytime the monitor: goes to sleep, screen save, comes out of sleep, a game is played on the center monitor, etc. So yeah, it's not just "don't use aero? That's like telling a DD porn star to get a breast reduction to end back pain. Practical, but not sexy." Thanks for the help, Beavis. Any other choices other than just picking up the 8600GT? |
