Multimonitor lag

[russell2002]

Hi,

I have 2 X Radeon 9250 g/cards running 3 monitors.

Windows 2000 and 2400 Athlon with 512MB.

When I view and scroll web pages the page jitters, and when windows are moved it may take a whole second for the window to re-draw in the new position.

Is this normal.

Can anything be done about it.

Thanks.

It sounds as if there is no hardware acceleration for the displays which could be a driver or setting problem.

Normal multi monitor should be just a smooth as single monitor running.

New graphics driver sorted it,

Was only an issue when in multimonitor mode.

Thanks.

Glad to hear you got your's sorted out. I couldn't get mine to work so I just disconnected the second monitor. Just curious, what are your system specs?

Ive used the cards in 2 systems

P3 700, 256MB Win 2000 Pro
Amd 2400, 512MB Win 2000 Pro

The radeon cards run fine in both systems.

So I actually have 3 video cards with 4 montors in the P3 system without problems. And could connect 5 monitors if I had another.

Ive got the multimonitor bug now, trying to find space on my desk for another monitor...
