Hi!
First of all I want to say sorry if my English spelling is not that good…. Its not my main language!
I have this problem, that I hope you will be able to help me solve!
I have recently set 3 monitors to my computer… before I had 2 and they worked fine (and still do)
Monitor 3 did not work when I plugged it in, but then I tried installing the newest driver to grfx card, and in the end of the install the 3 monitors flashed, and they all worked. Great! :)
Only one (but BIG) problem… when I restart windows, monitor 3 wont work again! If I reinstall driver it works again, but after restart… then its not working again!!??? :confused:
Anybody have a solution to this major problem?

Thanks in advance!
 
When you restart and the monitor is not displaying properly, have you tried using:

Right-click desktop -> Screen Resolution -> Detect ?

Or does that not work?
 
Thanks for reply.
After Windows restart, monitor 3 is all "dead" (no signal).
But if I reinstall the grfx.card driver, then screen comes back... until next restart! :confused:

If I Right-click desktop -> Screen Resolution, then windows also only shows 2 monitors... but after reinstall driver, then it shows 3 !?! (again right until windows restart)
 
I can't tell from what you've listed, but I would assume that you have one of your monitors using a Displayport to DVI adapter. If that's the case, I've generally found those to be wonky at best. A solution that would work for me in that case would be to unplug and replug in the displayport to DVI adapter once windows comes back up. That should get it recognized and let you play with it again. I haven't had any issues since switching to native display port monitors...
 
Hi again... sorry for late reply!
Now I have tried unplug and replug both the monitor that dont work, and my main monitor... without any luck :(

My main monitor (Samsung 226BW) is plugged in with DVI the two other monitors are standart (old) s-vga.
All four ports on graphic cards are DVI, so the two old monitors are plugged in with an svga to dvi adapter/converter!
Monitor 1 and 2 (those that are working) are connected to card 1 and monitor 3 are connected to card 2.
The two cards are connected inside with AMD CrossFireX.

As said before... if I reinstall graphic driver, then monitor 3 works again... right until i restart Windows! :confused:

I really hope someone can help here!
