FX 5700 ultra & "phantom" monitors
I just bought Gainward ultra 960 TV/DVI "GS", and the card runs perfectly on
my KX7-333 mbo. Except, in Win XP, under "Device Manager" it adds three "Default Monitors" alongside with my Sony CPD-G220. And in "Display properties - Settings" there are two monitors detected, but I only have one monitor pluged in. After I remove these monitors they just reapear at next boot. Tried reinstalling the card, tried diferent drivers, nothing helps. Thanks P.S. : Sorry for my english, its not my native language. Merry Christmas & happy New year everyone! |

That's just a guess though. I don't like how the nVidia drivers create virtual monitors to represent TV Out etc at all. -- "Of course, I always look at guys who have girlfriends. I compare myself to them, as hard as that is, and it's never good news. Then I think, gosh, imagine looking like that. Imagine being able to approach a girl you like and be greeted with a SMILE, rather than a look of fear or apprehension. Imagine what that would do for your self esteem, not to mention your whole outlook on life. Wow! That would be nice." |

Before FX 5700 ultra I had a GF3 Ti200 also with DVI and TV Out, and GF3 did not create these virtual monitors. I dont know if this is nVidias new "way" of dealing with TV Out and DVI but it was not there before. |
