Solution
If there’s a graphics controller built into the motherboard of your computer, by changing
your computer BIOS settings, you may be able to change which device controls your primary
display. For more information, see your system manual.
5
Solution
If you don’t need to use the graphics card that’s controlling your primary display, remove it
from your computer. If your primary display is controlled by the motherboard of your
computer, see your system manual for information on how to disable this graphics controller.
2
Cause
The program you’re using may not work properly with systems using more than one display
at a time.
1
Solution
An update may be available for the program you’re using. This update may fix problems this
program has with multi-display systems. For more information, contact the software
distributor for the program you’re using.
2
Solution
If you’re using multiple displays in
independent
mode, try using
stretched
mode instead.
Programs that don’t work in independent mode may work in stretched mode. For more
information, see Matrox PowerDesk help.
Problem
Not all graphics cards in the computer are fully supported
(Software doesn’t work with a certain graphics card, or another
graphics card doesn’t work at all)
1
Cause
If you have different models of graphics cards in your computer, your Matrox display driver
may not support all the graphics cards in your computer.
1
Solution
Under Windows 7/Vista/XP, a display driver may support one or more graphics cards. If a
display driver doesn’t support a certain card, a different display driver must be used for that
card. Software that depends on a certain display driver may not work with a graphics card
that’s not using the same display driver.
2
Solution
If a graphics card isn’t supported, you may need to remove it. If there’s graphics hardware
built into the motherboard of your computer that’s not supported by your software, see your
system manual for information on how to disable this graphics hardware.
Note:
If your Matrox product was provided by the manufacturer of your computer, check
the Web site of that manufacturer for the latest display driver. A display driver provided by
the manufacturer of your computer is more likely to be tested with your computer model.
