No need for matrox triple head now you have a fully software solution working here it is:

SoftTH v1.09 rc1 (FSX, Grid, CUDA, etc.)

Here's a new "pre-release" version, v1.09 rc1 including many fixes:

- Win32 monitorInfo hooks (Flight Simulator X)
- Nonmultisampled lockable backbuffer support (UT 2004)
- Fixed default depthbuffer render state with disabled autodepthbuffer
(Race Driver Grid, Midnight Club 2 ...)
- sideExtraWidth autodetection now uses desktop resolution setting
of secondary monitors instead of secondaryWidth/Height resolution
- Experimental CUDA fame copy support for Nvidia cards
(RGB32CUDA secondaryFormat setting)
- Forced SetRenderTarget override if application attempts to set
real backbuffer instead of SoftTH one (GTA 4)
- secondaryFormat setting validation
- forceAffinity setting to force process affinity to all processors
(DCS Black Shark, rFactor, GTR2...)
- Various selectable frame upload methods for non-multihead heads
(uploadMethod config setting): Win32 blit, Direct3D, CUDA
- Screenshots are now saved to user 'my documents' directory
- Fixed device reference counter when using lens correction
- Fixed excess present thread initialization on device reset
- Some Vista WDDM multihead related crash workaround attempts
- OSD color/texturing fixes

Just a note, the CUDA options don't work yet with Vista x64.

Does this work for FS2004 as well? I don't see FS2004 mentioned anywhere on their website.

I would think that any software triple-head solution would inherently be slower than a Matrox hardware solution. Having the main PC CPU doing all the work would tax the CPU resources even more, and that can't be good news, especially with FSX.
I could be wrong of course

Updating drivers for graphics card now. Running FSX with maxed out settings and doesn't seem to faze CPU - good framerates etc. Am going to update cards to XFX 9800's and try this. Should be fun - which is why we do all of this now

Regards to everyone and thanks for info.

Got to say i have been testing v1.09 for a week or so now and i have had a lot of problems. 1st it ran ok but with very choppy graphics and low frame rates.. And now it just crashes fsx straight away.. Still a bit of work to do with this sim but kudos to the author of this app, something i've been using extensively on other software ( games ) without any problems.
