code to detect 2 monitors

[paultait]

Hi

Is there anyway to programmatically detect if a G400 etc actually has a second monitor attached. If so is it dependant on driver and PD version

Thanks Paul

It should be doing it automatically. But that only works if you're using the 15-pin monitor connection. You can't auto-detect a BNC connection.

Sorry I'll explain. I'm writing a program that has to postion its windows in different places depending if a second screen is connected to the G400 card

Seems to me Windows knows since you get that "Windows has detected a second monitor, do you want to enable DualHead" message

Or contact developer relations and play with the vidcard registers like i'm thinking of doing

I was hoping there might be a registry entry that I could reliably check
