This applies to Windows XP and MXWendler version 4.0 and above with NVidida graphics
Problem:
- The MXW UI runs, and you see content updating in the output on the first screen, but not on the second ( output ) screen
Reason:
- You have an NVidia graphics board
Solution:
- Open NVidia system settings
- Under 'Multi-GPU Acceleration' enable 'Compatibility Mode'
Background:
- If you select performance mode, only the first screen receives OpenGL updates
- This is performance wise the best solution, but you have to split the screen eg. using a Matrox Triplehead or using a NVidia horizontal span
