Included in the package is an installation CD with all of the necessary software to get you up and running. The Matrox software requires MSXML 4.0 SP2 Parser and SDK (Microsoft XML Services) in order to function. If the system does not have these support items, the CD will ask to install them before it can do anything else.

After the installation of the XML update, there are three pieces of software available. The first two are the PowerDesk-SE software and TripleHead2Go applications. These allow the user to run the desktop in an ultra-wide display mode.



... And Software Support

The third piece of software is Matrox's Surround Gaming Utility, an application that configures games to run under the ultra-wide resolutions offered by the TripleHead2Go. The example below shows how the utility will even create an icon under the in-game menus for games that do not natively support wide resolutions. Matrox claims support for over 150 game titles; among these are Doom 3, Half-Life 2, F.E.A.R., and even newer titles such as Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. An exhaustive list is available on the company's website.

A new icon for F.E.A.R. was added to the desktop for surround gaming.
