Ok guy, i have one problem.... I did my flight deck and the problem is this: I use one monitor for the instrument and for the outside view i use the projector ..( both run with one video card , nvidia 9400 DDR2 1024 mb). The problem is that if i run only the projector everything its fine,but when i run monitor and projector in the same time the projector start going crazy..the view its bad and make at lot lines and wave, I don't know what happening..can be the video card .

Definitely the video card.. I suggest a more powerful video card preferably in the GTX series if u want all the good performance and also split to two displays..

If your only running Instruments, you can invest in an inexpensive USB Monitor adaptor.

I have 2 of these and they work great, they just wont refresh quick enough to use under intense graphics, but work great for Instruments, web browsing,
or fscommander. Im running FS9 and it works great for me, highly recomend

Salvatore, I know the Tritton works for FS9, not to sure about FSX, seems when i tried to run FSX i get an error about video not supported. What operating system do you have and what motherboard? The reason I ask is with Win 7 and certain MB, you can use both onboard Video and a Add-on Video card. I can run both my ATI on-board and my Nvidia add-on card.

Possibly, it depends if your bios will allow it, what MOBO do you have?

You may have to reboot the PC with both monitors connected.

The triple head2go wont work for your application, your projector is doing what the TH2G would do, that is used for expanding your resolution across 2 screens to enhance your visual area.
I had to go into my bios and set the proper video settings to get it to work. If you could tell me what MB or Computer your have, i can look it up to see if it is possible.

Another thing that may help you out, using your current set up, make sure all your resolutions match. Monitor resolution, proj resolution, and FSX resolution all set to the same. try that before trying anything else.
