Eyefinity Extended Display Issues

[JuvenileJonesy]

Good Afternoon,

I have been trying to setup 3 monitors for several days now and I have been able to have Eyefinity running (1 DVI, 1 HDMI & 1 ActivePort through an Active DVI adapter). What I do not want is always having it act as one display all the time. I want to be able to maximize a web site and not have it spread across all three screens. I have searched the web and youtube and they all speak of Catalyst Control Center which is now Radeon and I have been unable to make this happen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below are my system specs to help facilitate a response to my current problem.

System:
Motherboard - ASUS Z97-A
CPU - i7 4790K
RAM - 8g Crucial 1866 DDR3 x2 (16g Total)
Power Supply - 1000w
GPU - R9 270X x 2 (Crossfire)
OS - Windows 10 64 Bit

What version of the driver are you running? Crimson?

Geekwad,

Radeon Software - 15.12 (Crimson)

OK,

In your Radeon/Crimson control panel you have an 'Eyefinity' tab. You can toggle Eyefinity off there (discard Eyefinity). This will return it to three individual monitors. I only toggle Eyefinity there (quick setup works great unless you have bezel/height adjustments you need to make). If you need to re-enable a custom setup, you can create a hotkey for this in the 'more options' panel (which looks like the old CCC panel). You can easily navigate to the 'more options' location from the 'Graphics' tab.

On a related note, 16.3.1 is the most recent driver and has some good optimizations and fixes made over the 15.12

Geekwad,

When I toggle off eyefinity my ActivePort Display monitor goes off.

Figured it out after more searching. Answer was that after disabling windows was not set to extend with the Windows button + P. After which I was good to go.

Ah...

Crimson's features are split differently than they were. Extended used to stick, but noticed now that it doesn't with an array of connectors.

Glad you got it figured out.
