Well, aside from the obvious note of there being 120 pix of difference I will sound off with my own 0.02cents about this. Take a look at Dell's web page and you'll notice a myriad of 24 inch monitors, most in the 1080p category and then the Ultrasharp which does 1900x1200 res for nearly 200...

Tried checking your PCI and PCIe Voltage? Could be if it's a stock system they tend to have underpowered PSU's in them. Might be worth a shot to see if your voltage drops when you have both cards running. If one drops out in the middle of an OS Boot, it could easily mean a BSOD. What error...

http://www.jimbug.org/downloads/download.htm Monoff4.exe is what I found, I just tied it to one of the shortcut keys on my Razor Keyboard. It kills the monitors until I move the mouse and turn it off. Even during lock screen. So it's perfect!

I've tried but it seems something on my desktop or some application I run is causing movement on the desktop which Win7 sees as activity. So the bottom line is it never suspends the monitors at all. Even when I screen lock when I am not using the system, which I always do. When windows DOES...

Ok, this is a bit of a long question but I am long time reader here and just recently joined. So let me try and be as detailed as possible. I currently use a main desktop system which I've recently installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Let me give you a short hardware layout of...
