I just wanted to find out whats wrong with my setup that is stopping my 2d Surround from working. When I select span displays, it unchecks the box and sometimes crashes.

Details about my setup.

I have:
- Gigabyte GTX 670 4GB
- 24" ACER V246HL Connected to displayport via dvi to dp adaptor
- 17" IBM L170 TFT
- 17" Toshiba Matsushi

From what I've read it may be the adapter I'm using as it isn't an active adapter. I haven't had any problems when I was using my old 32" TV as my middle screen connected via HDMI. I just wanted to see if anyone had seen this problem and knew what was wrong before I went out to by a $25 active displayport adaptor.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I dont think that the resolution is the issue because I've had it working previously with a 32" TV and forcing resolutions.

I was thinking about using the hdmi to dvi adaptor as well but didnt want to fork out the cash unless i knew it worked. Have you had any success with 2 dvi connections and a dvi to hdmi connector?
