    Probs with 5 monitor setup.....

    Hi Everyone

    I'm very new here, this is my first of I'm sure many posts. I have just set up my PC for FSX. I am going to use it for currency training for my PPL. I know very little about PCs and FSX, but have played it a little on my old PC ( crappy old AMD 2002 PC..)

    I recently bought a whole load of kit for a multiple monitor setup

    Trouble is, as soon as I undock my view of my instruments from my main window and drag it to my 19' square panel the window goes black and the sim crashes. A little message pops up saying the nvidea drivers crashed.

    I have done a bit of a search online and found this topic discussed but I'm not able to fix the problem so far..... so please can someone help me? I'm sure looking at youtube videos that this is a simple problem, but I am getting a bit stressed as I invested all my spare cash in a monster PC and 5 monitors and TH2Go and it doesn't work!

    cheers!

    Re: Probs with 5 monitor setup.....

    Well then, after hours and hours more thinking and wondering if it would ever work, it was something simple after all. Let this be a lesson to beginners,

    DX10 preview must be DISABLED if you are going to undock windows.

    Once disabled, it worked fine!

    I'm sure ill have more newb questions so standby people...
