When I try to run Discovery Accelerator on my dual-monitored desktop PC, both screens go black then start flashing - one then the other.
I'm running XP SP3 on a Dell OptiPlex GX520. The video card is a Matrox G450 (or compatable, anyhow).
Has anybody else run into this problem or can anyone confirm they have had success with running DA in a dual-monitor configuration?
Many thanks,
Keith

I ended up updating the Matrox driver on my system and this took care of the problem. Tony - thanks for the confirmation that the dual-monitor configuration is, indeed, supported...

Hi Keith,
I have seen DA Client work successfully on dual monitors several times. What happens if you start the DA client with the second monitor unplugged?

Hi Tony,
Well, rather than unplugging the monitor, I just went into my settings and disabled the 2nd monitor. When I started up DA, it worked fine.
Encouraged, and thinking that maybe I'd be able to trick DA into letting me run with both monitors on, I then enabled the 2nd monitor - but the blinking resumed.
Interesting... I'll try to install it on a dual-monitor machine with a different video card and see if that helps at all.
Thanks!
