Hi!
I am new to multiple-monitors, just started last week. I've got a Matrox Millennium P650, WinXP-SP2-de.
There is one problem that I encounter: When I USE ANY screensaver (even the built-in Windows open GL-ones), my monitors will not be switched off.
I.e. if I set the screen saver to 1 minute and the power-off to 2 minutes, the computer will NOT turn off the monitors, but if I reverse it, i.e. power off = 1 min. and screensavers =2 min, it will work.
Same with ultramon screen savers.
Anybody any Idea? Thanx, Wolfgang

Mine works fine. Did you try one of the Windows non-open-GL screensavers, like Beziers? That's the one I've been using without problems.

yes, the problem is there even with the Micro$oft "blank screen" screensaver. Upgraded the driver and the P650's BIOS. No change.
I suspect my WinXP installation is "not clean" any more after a considerble amount of running-time, but I won't go for a reinstall just because of this...

I've had no problem when using NVidia cards.
