>>he/she shouldn´t have thought about it in the first place.
Wonder how does that person's house look like.
Probably he/she's got a small UI box with just days of the week and the buttons pushed,
rest of the house functions accordingly.
Back to the topic, I've noticed the render region has gone waaaaay slower. (6.02 btw)
It just keeps wiping bottom to top every time you tweak a setting.
XSI problem or nVidia problem, any idea?
Thanks,
Eriya

The nVidia drivers (regardless the GeForce or Quadro) have an advanced option to accelerate OGL on either one or two monitors.
Sounds like your driver is set to accelerate one monitor only.
Now while you´re sifting through the driver settings, you may want to try "VSync = off" as well. Basically keeps the driver from restricting redraw to even multipliers of the displayfrequence, for a flatscreen, something like 60, 30, 15 fps instead of just "as much as the adapter can deliver".
In case you´re running the latest nvidia drivers, good luck.
Those guys managed to create a new user interface that feels like a slap in the face everytime you try to change something.
"Consumerfriendly..."
those nerds. I don´t know which usability expert got that idea but I know he/she shouldn´t have thought about it in the first place.
Or maybe he/she should be forced to use it. All day for days...
