Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Matrox G550 & XP

Hi guys,

I am pretty new in the multi monitor world, but already I have questions :).

I am using XP Corp Ed built 2600 with a Matrox G550 with the 5.71 drivers.

I got the setup installed and it shows two monitors in the display properties, but now I can't use those sweet backgrounds for dual monitor setups. The computers puts the wallpaper on both monitors instead of spreading it over both. Know what I mean?

Also the highest possible refresh rate I can use is 85Hz. I have an Iiyama 510 22" and a 512 22" and I know they can do 100Hz or more at this res.

I found a way to force the primary display to 100Hz by going into the "monitor settings" tab in the display options ... there is adjust the display mode ... like I said this works and puts the primary screen to 100Hz but the secondary is still at 85Hz. The only option I have normally are 60/75 and 85Hz. ...

Who can help me out with both problems?

Thanks!
