No option to span displays with surround
Hello,
I recently bought 3 monitors hoping to setup 2d surround for gaming. My control panel does not show the option "span displays with surround". I have no options to setup 2d surround. I can only activate the 3 displays and set them up in extended or cloned desktop mode. I tried drivers 258.96 and 260.63(beta). I first tried it with Vista 64 then upgraded to windows 7 64bit and also tried it with XP. I meet the requirements for 2d surround listed on nvidia's surround webpage [url="http://www.nvidia.com/object/3dv-system-requirements-surround-technology.html"]http://www.nvidia.com/object/3dv-system-re...technology.html[/url]. I have a GTX295 with 2 dvi and 1 hdmi connections. All 3 monitors are activated and detected exept when trying it in XP, 2 monitors go black after activating them. Does anyone know why I do not have an option to span my displays? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
