Video Quality - NVidia Quadro FX 350M

Hi Everyone,

I have a Dell Precision M65 with a NVIDIA Quadro FX350M, I'm running Windows
Vista RTM and something weird is happening with the video, when I'm at the
office I normally dock my computer and use an external screen as my main
screen and the laptop as secondary screen, the weird thing is that
everything works fine, the Windows Aero Appearance works great, the problem
starts when I undock my laptop, if move a window it doesn't move smooth than
when I have the second screen, also if minimize, maximize or resize a window
happens the same. Actually my computer seems to work faster when is dock and
I'm using the second screen.

Does anyone is having this problem?

Regards,

Alex

I assume that you are running in extended desktop mode, is that correct?
If yes then what resolutiion and interface are you using for each display?
Also which display is set as your primary display?
And what is the native resolution of your Laptop display?
What release of the NVIDIA Vista drivers are you using?

Yes, I'm running extended desktop mode.
Primary Display:
External Display Dell 19"
1280 by 1024

Secondary Display:
1900 by 1200 (this the native resolution of my laptop)

I'm using the driver that came with Vista RTM:
Driver Date= 8/21/06
Driver Version= 7.14.10.9686

Thanks for answering

Alex

Then I suggest that you try making your desktop your primay display.

There are some newer 96.47 NVIDIA VISTA drivers that are in test from: which
you may want to try also.
http://guru3d.com/

I note that there are twice as many pixels in your Laptop screen then there
are in your External display which does mean that the graphics card does
have to do more work it create the output.

But the problem is not when I extend my desktop, the problems happens when
my laptop is working just with its own monitor.

I know, that is exactly why I suggested that you make the laptop display the
primary display so that it won't try and use the other display first which
may be delaying it working on the secondary display.

Again I know that and again that is exactly why I think you should try
making it the primary display so that it does not keep looking for the other
display which is the primary monitor which may be the cause of the slowdown.
It certainly won't hurt to try.

If I use my laptop monitor as primary or if I use the external as primary
everything works great, except when my laptop is undocked and I'm working
with the laptop monitor without extendend desktop. :(

Ok so if you do not have the other display conneted and you'r laptop is
undocked and there is no reference to a seconday display showing up in
display properties PC applications run slower then the same appliations do
on your laptop display when a second display is connected and you still run
the applications on the laptop display is this correct? If yes I have to
admit that I do not know what the problem could be.
