Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Switching between 2 of 3 monitors on Vista
DaveLee   2007-06-30 17:53
I have an NVidia 8600 GTS which support two DVI plus component, two at a time. Using NVidia profiles, I can set up a profile for different combinations (monitor + LCD TV, monitor + Projector).

Is there a way to load these profiles when using MultiMon? In other words, I'd like to switch the displays as well as the resolution.

Currently in Vista, I am unable to assign hotkeys in the NVidia control panel, and must navigate through the menus every time.

I just discovered MultiMon -- it's very nice. If I can solve this issue, it's well worth the license fee.

Thanks in advance

I'm not aware of a way to do this, and UltraMon itself can't switch a display between DVI and component.

Thanks for the reply.

I found this link [1] which details how to change monitors using the NVidia control panel. For example:

rundll32.exe nvcpl.dll,dtcfg setview 1 dualview DA DB

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work with the NVidia March Beta (158.45) drivers.
