I installed a PCI GeForce2 MX200 Video card manufactured by Visontek into my dad's computer today (I exorcised the Comqrap out of it yesterday), and am having a problem where it thinks there are two monitors and I can't adjust the one the way I should be able to. There is only one monitor connector on the back of the card.
I only get the choices of 640x480 and 848x400 (???) on the Hyundai HCM-423E, instead of 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 like I did on the built in SiS530. There's also this second monitor that doesn't exist and is currently disabled.
I've got the 21.83 WHQL drivers that came with the card installed, and DirectX7.
AMD K6-2 450MHz
256MB PC100 (1x128, 2x64)
SiS 5595 motherboard
GF2MX200 PCI 32MB
Anybody know how to completely disable twinview and get this thing back to normal?
 
This is how I do it on my computer with v28 Detonator drivers.

Control Panels ----> Nview Desktop Manager -------> Disable nView.
 
I guess I could try the 28 drivers, but it's a hassle to d/l on 56k.
There should be some way to disable it.
Also, it could be caused by an incompatability between the video drivers and my monitor's INF file, becuase in the INF file it lists the proper resolutions, and then it doesn't display the proper ones in the settings tab.
 
yup,
right click desktop,
select properties
click the settings tab
click advanced button
click the nView tab
choose "Standard (nView disabled)
 
It's on "Standard (Off)" or whatever, but there are still two monitor pictures in the settings tab and it still isn't reading the resolutions for the monitor correctly.
I've still got 21.83 since 28 doesn't seem to add anything to solve this.

    Guys just a heads up I am going to be shutting the site down soon. I am just waiting on the NUON people to decide whether they want to transfer forum data and keep the discord. My email is [email protected] for anyone that wants to keep in touch and I have a facebook too. I will make an official post later. Love you guys and will miss everyone!

    Oh no - please don't lose the Nuon content

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Someone email AtariAge and see if they want me to transfer the forum data over to it
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Could probably keep NUON stuff around here if we wanted.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm what to do about the World Editor site though?
  • Stephen Stephen:
    I'd rather personally just own a backup of the Nuon data than see it go to AtariAge honestly. If it gets enshittified as per usual, or if some of the "regular" Jaguar folks get there, it's not gonna be fun
  • The Helper The Helper:
    There will be a github of the forum data so the NUON Forum Data I guess would be available there
  • The Helper The Helper:
    World Editor is technically Ryoko stuff not mine you guys can keep that I am not in that even
  • jonas jonas:
    :( end of an era :(
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Dont think of it as an end jonas - think of it as a beginning, because really my friend that is what it is.
  • A Andyoyo:
    Thank you for the hard work over the years. It did not go unnoticed.
