Some Gigabyte Nvidia NX73 and NX76 series cards may not support nVidia nView properly

Problem

When using the Gigabyte GV-NX73G128D or GV-NX76G256D-RH or GV-NX76T256D-RH graphic cards, the following symptoms may occur when trying to change the nView settings…
GV-NX73G128D
  • Both monitors cannot be enabled to work together in Dual View, Horizontal Span, Vertical Span or Clone Mode.
  • Only the Single Display Option is available and one monitor can be used at a time.
GV-NX76G256D-RH and GV-NX76T256D-RH
  • Sometimes only the Clone mode is available.
  • Sometimes the 2nd Display is restricted to 8 bit Colour quality and changing it to 32 bit will still revert the setting back to 8 Bit.
Reason
The firmware version of these cards seems to be causing these problems.

Solution
Please update these cards to the latest firmware versions which can be obtained from the following link…. http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/VGA/BIOS_List.aspx
