so we went to dual monitors on a firegl e1 vid card in a presision 350 workstation. downloaded the latest dell drivers for it from 2004 and the aspect ratio looks fat. it's like the vid card is treating the 2 monitors like one and datacad 10.05.04 is feeding off the 2560x1024 to set it's aspect. anybody else had problems like this? I have to go back to single monitor to use datacad. the newer presision 470 workstation we have with the firegl v3100 do not have this "feature". I'll see if I can get a screen cap to show you the problem.
You'll need to adjust your Datacad to your screen's aspect ratio. Use the Screen Calibration tool in the Program Prefs. You can read up more on it in the manual too.

Hmm your right, I checked the Rev. History and looks like that came with v.11. I thought it had been around for quite a while before v.11, guess not. Not sure what to do for ya now

Hello,
You should try setting the monitors to independent resolutions (1280x1024 each), even if they are they same size. This should work much better!

I think that's the issue I can't get it to set it seperately. when I click Extend Desktop Horizontal it uses 2560 for the Horizontal res. I'm just wondering if this is a win2000 issue. if you notice it doesn't show the 2 monitors in the display settings tab on the image. I have tried to find a setting to change the res seperately but it seems to tie them together. it does reconize the different monitors and has the proper names for them in the monitor tab. but it doesn't allow me to adjust them in that tab. probably cheaper to go out and buy a new vid card for the 2 computers I have that are doing this. now if I only had it in the budget.
Hello,
Yes, it is likely to be the Win2K ATi driver -- they do not support as much in Win2K as they do in WinXP.
