Hi everyone,

I just bought a X1900 XT with vivo and would like to use 3 displays at the same time

2 monitors (one extended)
+
TV out for my plasma tv (for theater mode overlay)

I use the latest catalyst drivers, which only allows 2 displays at the same time... either the second monitor or the tv display

Now i can surely set display profiles on ati control center to go around this issue but this option breaks my desktop icon settings each time i swap between the profiles which is quite annoying...

anyone knows how to enable 3 displays at the same time?? or a possibility to make sure the icon settings stays sticky for each profile??

thanks in advance

Nope, one or the other. As a matter of fact, when I started playing with my x1800xt, I couldn't understand why I was having issues with my TV. Turns out, I plugged my montior into DVI #2, which disables the TV out. Once I switched DVI plugs, the TV worked without a hitch. Its a shame you can't use all three plugs at once, but AFAIK, once you use the DVI its lights out for the Svideo...
