Another driver fi le of different version exists.
It can happen when the driver is installed by overwriting the old one. Uninstall the old

driver completely before installing the new one.

Any other measures for multi-display-related problems?
Try the followings as preventive measures:

• Use the CMOS switch on HP/Compaq computers.
• Set the system BIOS's primary video setting to PCIExpress.
• Install cards one by one.
• Check the card for the secondary display(s) if it can be used for secondary displays.
• Update the computer motherboard BIOS.
• Update the chip set driver on the computer.
• Update the driver for a non-NVIDIA card.
• Use a different slot.
• Change the driver version.

Display setup

I can't select the predetermined resolution.
Check the followings:

• Was the display connected when the computer was turned on? Start up the

computer with the display being connected.

• Isn't "Hide modes that this display cannot display" unchecked? Select Display Prope

rties>Settings

(tab), select the subject display's icon, click Advanced>Monitor(tab),

and uncheck "Hide modes that this display cannot display."

• Isn't the old driver active? Uninstall the driver fi rst and then install the new driver.
• Is there a display icon that has ! mark in Device Manager? If so, delete the display.

I can't uncheck "Hide modes that this display cannot display."
Log in as a user with administrative privileges.

Is it possible to have both portrait and landscape orientations or two different

resolution settings in a multi-display setup at the same time?

Yes, in independet mode.

Is there any other way to change the display settings?
Click the NVIDIA Settings icon in the task bar. If the icon is missing, restart the computer.

There is an inactive display icon in Display Properties>Settings on Windows XP.
It is a virtual display that appears when set to a mode other than the independent

mode. There is no problem with it.

Do I set the color mode to 256 colors (8bit) for a monochrome display?
No. Set 32-bit color for monochrome displays. (High Color (16bit) does not display

256 shades of gray.)

Note:

This card does not support the fi xed linear gray palette. When set to 256 colors

(8bit), it only displays 236 shades of gray due to Windows restrictions.

Tell me about the multi-display mode settings.
See Chapter 4.

Nothing comes up on one of two displays connected to this card.
Check if the display's multi-display setting is not in "Single display" and if the display is

"Attached" by right-clicking the display icon in Display Properties. Check "Attached"
if not.
