4 monitors on one PC and FSX=fail
This is the first time I try the setup:
two monitors on ATI 9550 AGP and two on ATI 9250 PCI. FSX only sees the 9550 with one monitor, and one unlabeled video card or monitor.
Three monitors (one on AGP, 2 on PCI) has worked fine until now.
I even erased fsx.cfg and same thing.
Any fixes for this?

Do you have drivers loaded for both vid cards? Usually, you should have both vid cards the same so you only need one set of drivers.

Hi,
Go to www.fsinsider.com at the service packs. There is a link with the multimonitor bugs. Read it and download the fix.
If you run in wide view, also inside fsx.cfg change wideviewaspect=true

the only similar thing I found is for Vista. I run XP.
were you thinking of something else?
I'm gonna try DX10 and SP2 (can't remember if I have it on) and see what happens.

Hi!
Confirm that your earlier setup (1agp 2pci) was with the same cards?
Otherwise thoose cards are using the same drivers. But you'll need to install the driver again after inserting the second card. If you haven't done that already please try to install the drivers again.

nevermind,turns out forgot to enable hardware acceleration for the secondary port....again. I swear this happened to me before.
It works now.
Thanks for the responses.

How and where would I go to check if I have hardware acceleration enable for my other ports? I've got two video cards and I'm trying to run 3 monitors and one projector but the third monitor never populates with the panel when I go to fullscreen mode, it just goes black?
Thanks

Right click on your desktop and select 'Properties'.
When that opens, select 'Settings', and click on 'Advanced'.Boeing Skunk Works

Thanks you, apparently I already had hardware acceleration enabled so it's off to scour the internet some more.
