• How do I enable dualveiw on a nvidia card?
    16 replies, posted
My card is a 9600 gso. Both monitors are connected Monitor>Vga cable>VGA-DVI converter>card. The drivers I am using do not have a dualveiw option as I remember in older drivers. How do I enable this feature? (For clarification, Dualveiw is where you have two or more monitors set up, and you can game on one and say... Watch a movie on the other.)
Got this option in the Nvidia control panel? [img]http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/4651/dualy.png[/img]

Goddamn it, tweak ClearType. That picture hurts my fucking brain.
Excuse me but why does this even matter? You can game on one monitor and watch a movie on the other without DualView.
Make sure the screen is turned on
[QUOTE=Odellus;18571218]Excuse me but why does this even matter? You can game on one monitor and watch a movie on the other without DualView.[/QUOTE] I want to control the resolution and background of the second screen independently of the first.
[QUOTE=gerbils_alt_2;18571346]Because when I turn a game on it turns the unused monitor off. And I want to have separate desktop backgrounds.[/QUOTE]Does it go black when your in-game? By the way I have the same Dell and I have it dual aswell.But mine doesn't go black.Anyways, download displayfusion here for different wallpapers on each monitor.

Well I just realized it doesn't turn black, But it does change the resolution of both screens to what the game in screen 1 is set to.
[QUOTE=gerbils_alt_2;18571346]I want to control the resolution and background of the second screen independently of the first.[/QUOTE] You already can change the resolution of the second, if you want to control the background get DisplayFusion.

[QUOTE=gerbils_alt_2;18571518]Display fusion works, But like I said, The resolution of screen 2 changes to the same resolution screen 1 changes to when a game is initiated.[/QUOTE] You can't change that. [editline]07:10PM[/editline] And why does it matter? You shouldn't be dualing if you can't run the game on monitor 1 at full resolution. [editline]07:10PM[/editline] If what I understand, monitor 1 has a higher resolution than 2.
No. same res. I play maxed res which for me is 1280x1024 on both. But I would like the opportunity to be able to control them independently, like in previous versions of drivers nvidia has released.
Right click desktop, Properties > Settings. Should get 2 monitors showing 1 + 2. Click each to change the resolution, you can drag them around aswell.
I just got sick looking at that image with the fucked up cleartype. I'mma lie down.

I don't know if it's the same, but I have my massive old TV hooked up to my PC through the S-video port on my card, and I just changed the resolution through the usual Screen Resolution screen.
