Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Using three monitors, with 6150 and 7800GT - Dualview NOT Span

I have asked this question a couple of times now, and never got a decent answer, but i'm hoping the wide availability of of nVidia 6150 boards has changed this, as well as the release of nView 3.5.

What i want to do:
> Use two 15" Dell Ultrasharp monitors on their sides (768x1024) as satellites
> With a single 20" Dell Widescreen in the centre
> Using an MSI 6150 board with DVI, and a 7800GT with 2x DVI
> I don't want any analogue connections, so i'm not interested in using the 6150 VGA
> It must be Dual-View (Triple-View) rather than Span mode due to the disparate resolutions

Q1 - Can i do this in windows with nView?
Q2 - Can i do this in Linux with Twinview?

I hope to God i can get a definate answer this time around.

Kind regards

From what I am experiencing right now this is a no. I can't even get 2 monitors going with a 6800XT or 6600GT and the 6150... The foxconn mobo will not let me disable the onboard card and so far everytime I install any forceware driver on the others I get no display at all on the secondary monitor... This is really annoying, wish I had never bought this board.

I was WRONG!! YAY! It works great. After 12+ hours or messing with this thing I updated the foxconn motherboard bios and all is gooooood!
