2 monitors on R7500

[Twinkle]

I wanna use a pair of monitors with my Radion 7500; however, i cannot find how to enable it, all i can get is both monitors displaying the same image.

did you install the hydravision software? if so are you running win2k? i believe only 98/Me/XP will allow you to stretch the desktop

 

[Twinkle]

In the Settings section of display properties, did you click on the "Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor" box?

I've never run 2000, but thats how its done on XP.

No, there is no place to select to extend the desktop, I though that was where it was too.

Are you getting into Hydravision properties? Do you see all the Hydravision options in your ATI control panel?

 

[Twinkle]

I dont Have an ATI control panel

 

[Twinkle]

ok, now I am in the ATI control panel, but there is no multi monitor stuff..

You need to download the ATI control Panel. It's a seperate file. IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE DISPLAY DRIVERS.


Grab it here: http://pdownload.mii.instacontent.net/ati/drivers/control-panel-6-13-10-3041-efg.exe

After you install it, you'll get the options you want.
