Hey folks,
I have 3 21" IBM P202 monitors hooked up to 2 video cards; 2 are hooked to an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro and the remaining one is connected to a Radeon 7000 PCI. I have a MSI 865PE Neo2 LS mainboard. In my bios settings, I have the option to set preference, PCI or AGP as primary boot display. I have it set to AGP. However, when I boot up, the monitor connected to the PCI card displays the post. WHen I get to the XP login, my center, AGP connected monitor takes over, because I have it set as the Primary display under XP's display settings. One question. What the Freakin high hoo ho hay?
I would really like to use a 3 monitor background that would span my monitors naturally, from left, to right. As it is, XP sees my monitors as 2, 3, 1, left to right. 1, on the far right, is the PCI monitor/card. So to sum up. I have 3, identical monitors, connected to 2 video cards, one AGP and one PCI. I want the monitors to be seen by XP as 1, agp, 2, agp and 3, PCI. Left to right, just how God and my massive techno lust intended.
So,.... help?
