Matrox Graphics Card – User Guide

33

1

Solution

Install the latest unified display driver for your Matrox graphics cards. (A unified display
driver supports more than one model of graphics card.) This driver is available on the Matrox
Web site (

www.matrox.com/mga

). Make sure that the display driver supports all Matrox

products in your computer. Install the display driver by running the setup program included
with it.

2

Solution

If a graphics card isn’t supported, you may need to remove it. If there’s a graphics processor
built into the motherboard of your computer that’s not supported by your software, see your
system manual for information on how to disable this graphics processor.

2

Cause

Windows 98/Me/2000/XP – If the Windows method for display driver installation was used
(instead of running the setup program included with your Matrox display driver), the driver
may not be installed for all the graphics cards it supports.

1

Solution

Run the setup program included with the Matrox display driver. The setup program
automatically installs the display driver for each Matrox graphics card it supports.

Problem

In multi-display mode, displays aren’t numbered consecutively

1

Cause

If you have more than one graphics card in your computer, the
display numbering may not be consecutive for the displays of a
multiple-display card (for example, a DualHead supporting
card). Display numbering depends on the types of expansion slots used in your computer
(AGP and PCI) and the BIOS settings of your computer.

1

Solution

Windows* 98/Me/2000/XP – Move the displays in Windows.

(* Windows 2000/XP – In “Separate resolutions…” mode only.)

Note:

If your Matrox product was provided by the manufacturer of your computer, check the

Web site of that manufacturer for the latest display driver. A display driver provided by the
manufacturer of your computer is more likely to be tested with your computer model.

Note:

A unified Matrox display driver may not be available for all the models of Matrox

graphics cards installed in your computer (especially for older models). Under Windows
98/Me/2000/XP you can use more than one display driver in this case.
