you need a second video vard (and a mobo which offers two PCI-E slots). 2nd card can be really cheap one like 6600gts or something. finally you need a little program called "softth". but i would go for the th2go as well, because its supporting a lot more games (http://www.matrox.com/graphics ... cts/th2go/gaming/list.php).

my one did not run yet with LFS. will test it today. also i've currently too small desk and the three displays looking crap when formed like an "U". the monitor stand arrives only today or tomorrow. than i can make a nice pic.

@moatherboard....theoretically you should be able to use nearly every SLI-motherboard.

All 3 of my monitors are running using DVI.

mmmh, okay will try it. I changed them right in the beginning of this "operation", so maybe it works now when everything is running fine.

thanks again, have managed now to get them both working properly. It took me also 3 hours "try and error" and lots bluescreens. Unfortunately i cannot really say, how i did it exactly at the end, because I tried it many small different ways.

first, it was of course necessary to put the board/selector and bios on "dual" mode. after doing that, the cards stopped overheating like during my first try.

I put the middle display on 8800gts and the right/left ones on the 7800gtx, like in yr setup. But when I installed now first the 8800gts drivers, i was never been able to stretch something at this point, because I could set only "one display". The other two monitors were not reckognized, not even at 640x480.

When I installed now 7800gtx drivers, system crashed.

Than I tried installing first 8800gts driver again, but afterwards deactivating same, in order to install proper 7800gtx driver.
This worked....I had now left/right monitor working properly in dual mode, and the middle one was working as well, but without driver (640x480).
Tried to activate now the middle one, in order to get him working properly as well....system crashed. (became a little frustrated)

So, I did otherway around. First 7800gtx driver, which worked well again. Put them on dual mode and "primary use". Now the 8880gts driver for the middle one who was running without driver. I cant remember here, but think system crashed again, and magically after re-boot he reckognized the 8800gts as well and he showed me all three monitors in "display-menu.

But one more question....are you running all three monitors via DVI or VGA signal? (When I had them on DVI...the left/right display didnt get any signal at all. So I changed everyone to VGA.)

thank you both....will check the dual mode and also maxim's hint.

@maxim....how did you "stopped the 8800 being used"?
SoftTH - getting two graphiccards working

Hello,

pls can someone give me an advice how I get work following system in order to be able to use SoftTH:

- asus A8N-Sli deluxe
- 8800gts
- 7800gtx

On my mobo, i have two pci-e slots (blue and black) and an "asus ez selector" to change between "single" and "dual" graphic mode. Usually I had always the "old" 7800gtx running in the blue slot and selector was on "single", because I think that "dual" mode is only for SLI necessary. (correct me, if i am wrong)

Now I got the 8800gts, installed it also on the blue slot and changed the old 7800gtx to black slot. the "asus selector" i kept on single mode.

But now i have follwoing problem. After re-start, I have to install driver for the one card...which is okay....but than he wants me to install the driver for the 2nd card.... and while installing the 2nd driver the computer is crashing.

Also the cards became VERY hot, during that operation.

I ve now installed only the 8800gts, and everything runs well and smooth.


Does anyone has an idea, how i get work the 2nd card properly (changes in bios, on mobo or something else?)




thanks,

Quote from AppiePils :I totally agree with BenjiMC. As an organizer the most important thing is being consistent. Not being consistent leads to a questionable integrity which eventually will demolish all the hard work you guys have put in setting up this event.

That also counts for the tone in certain posts of the organization which are basically lack any respect. You may get annoyed, but at least, especially as the organization, keep the responds professional and in a respectful manner.



Goodnight, hopefully the level of discussion will rise again as I have not seen 1 single well-argumented post from you.

yep, its hard to to understand that teams want to drive same settings as they qualified....but you american genies seems to be to clever for the old europeans....i am sorry for being noob. sorry, really.

anyhow, i think it will not change the anti-american decision of 24h race to race with 0/50/100...so just live with the decsion and save yr energy for further....ähm....just live with it.

yo, seems nobody getting the point that qualifying with a car should be something like racing a car.....anyhow...have fun here for further discussions and drive with angry stomache thinking to be on the unadvantaged side or just spectate or whatever....you guys are just too skilled to defense optinons....i am off here. cya

Quote from MARSH2a :This thread doesn't discuss any of those issues.

http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=22869

this thread doesnt discuss the 24h race...and i am talking about a RACE....one race....where a a qualifying has been done...and where no global balancing will be changed because of "scawen have a good to day" to think to change it before one week of the race. at least he gave us the possibility to keep the race on FAIR level (means AS QUALIFIED).

Quote from srdsprinter :You have no idea how X will handle balancing. You do now, it's 0/40/80. Use it.

"For the race we will use the latest patch." Now, is that patch, or Test Patch. I'll assume the later, but we don't know. Either way, you say "latest patch" NOT latest patch *(As we see fit)....

as mentioned already...its not testpatch...its just global balancing....a complete different thing.....as you can see....so accept the rules or quit the race.

Quote from MARSH2a :We all understood when the patches came out that there was a possibility of the handicaps being finalized or not by race day.

no, we didnt...and thats the point. we understand that something more is changing in details.....skins, grapghic wahtever, but not global balancing....thats the point.

Quote from srdsprinter :The ballast was changed because it was UNFAIR to FZR and XRR.

You are keeping it UNFAIR to FZR and XRR.

How hard is that?

all who changed the car to fxr or who used the fxr car from beginning in 24h race diddnt know until yesterday, that fxr car is in adavantage to xrr/fzr UNTIL yesterday...so just accept the rules or give the fxr drivers again the chance to choose their car, new qualifying etc.....pls understand!!!!

Quote from srdsprinter :So to make it fair to the FXR drivers, you use rules that we're deemed Unfair by the LFS developer, and unfair to ALL the other GTR drivers.

Very backwards.

you dont understand sorry...not MAKING it fair for fxr driver....than KEEPING it fair for fxr drivers....BIG difference. but seems its not possible to make it understandable for you.

Quote from BenjiMC :Why dont you be a good sportsman and accept the rule which is ALREADY in place that we will use the latest testpatch meaning we will use the LATEST balancing, tbh i woulda never used a testpatch since it's a TESTpatch but thats not my desicion.

the testpatch was taken because of the slot-improvement....at this stage nobody was imagine that global balancing is going to be changed (again....with old w17 patch....balancing is same as with w24). it would be unfair for all fxr drivers to allow the xrr/fzr cars to drive the race with lower weight than before carchange-deadline....its just for the fairness of 24h race....nothing against community decision that xrr/fzr are to slow at all against fxr.

Quote from srdsprinter :W17 is a TEST PATCH. Thank you for proving my point.

yeah.,..but w17 was the patch we used for choosing cars...and w24 is still also a testpatch. thanks for proving my point. damn.

Quote from srdsprinter :Actually they do.

Go download a fresh install of LFS S2alpha Patch W. NO balancing weights.

Download a TEST patch. Global balancing.

i have w17.....and have now 0/40/80 global balancing...thanks!!!!
PudelHH
S2 licensed
latest test patches has nothing to do with "global balancing" from master server....so if we would use w17 we had same weights...0/40/80...so dont argue with testpatches!!!!

the cars were choosed with 0/50/100....so be sportsmen and accept the rules to drive the race with that setting. nobody could imagine that devs are going to change the balancing one week before the race and giving avdvantages to xrr/fzr cars without giving the fxr cars a chance to change the car.

hi....i am talking only about corner entry....Maybe its possible to give me an idea what process(es) makes the car more vulnerable for oversteer in corner entry with low coast lock.

I understand thats also a question of driver skills, but also for a very good driver its harder to get a corner under low coast lock as with high coast lock. I simply want to know why its harder?

Hope you can understand me and sorry for bothering.

thanks

Okay ...sorry I mixed up something....when I said I want to know why my car is stepping out of a corner with LOW coast lock....of course my car is massively OVERSTEERING....(not understeering...sorry)....and I want to know why the car is doing that.
PudelHH

Hi Bob,

thanks for yr answer....but I still dont understand why the car is going to understeer while having low coast lock ....is it because due to easier turning ability which is creating more weight-transfer...and loosing grip?

thanks,
