Surround problem

[Dantemoulin]

Hey, first of all I don't know if I should post this here or in the software section so please let me know if this is the wrong place.

 

I have three monitors which two of them are 1080p and one is an analog 1050p.

I want to set up a 2D surround but Nvidia won't let me create a resolution of 5760x1080, it forces it to be set at 5040x1050

 

How do I set the resolution to 5760x1080?

 

And also, how do I make it so that games won't stretch the image? Or maybe that will be fixed if the resolution is right?

Firstly all monitors have to be the same resolution, as you are saying it won't let you change it to 1080p since your lowest monitor resolution is 1050p.

To answer your question about stretched image. Not all games have surround support, if it has a stretched image use a program called "Widescreen fixer" or "Flawless Widescreen" which fixes most problems with games. Their are still games though that have no surround support.

For Surround the resolution of monitors needs to be the same on all of them. If they're not, they will all be treated like the lowest resolution monitor in the array.

I should have mention that I am able to change the 1050p monitor to 1080p but maybe that does not affect surround?

The widescreen fixer solved everything, thank you so much!!

Overall Flawless Widescreen is a better program, which centers HUD ETC.

Give it a try.

Oh my god, I have the exact same screen setup and problem as you do. That's kinda creepy...

 

What I was planning on doing was waiting until I could afford a 1080p monitor to replace the 1050p one. I'll try the widescreen fixer though

 

EDIT: And by the way, you're lucky you got 5040x1050. I got something like 3750x1024, extremely stretched.
