Matrox G450 MMS – User Guide 29
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
Technical Support Web site (www.matrox.com/graphics/support
). 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 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. 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 2000/XP – Move the displays in Windows.
1 Right-click your Windows desktop background, then click Properties Æ Settings .
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
2000/XP, you can use more than one display driver in this case.
