  Resolution, refresh and color depths supported are automatically determined
  when the video driver is run.


 Installation:

 shutdown after all ports have been configured.

 pixel corruption problem when streams processor is activated with DVI output.

 Configuration:

 To configure your multi-screen system for a specific setup, from the Start
 Menu click on Settings and click on the Control Panel.  Then double-click on
 SetArray.  When the dialog box appears it will give you choices for the number
 of horizontal and vertical displays, single screen, the full screen display and
 blank-on-full-screen option.  Any changes made with SetArray will become
 effective the next time NT boots.

 After SetArray changes have been saved the display array parameters will be
 updated in the System Registry.  If changes were made to the array size a dialog
 box will prompt you to apply changes now with yes or no buttons.

 The DisplayArray parameters are described as follows:

 "H" controls the number of horizontal screens desired.
 "V" controls the number of vertical screens.

 Both parameters must be set or the driver will auto-configure for the
 number of cards in the system.  The "FullScreenDisplay" can be used to change
 the default screen for a DOS full screen prompt.  Valid numbers are 0 through
 the numbers of screens set by auto-configuration or by valid values of
 (H x V)-1.  The "BlankOnFullScreen" parameter can be used to blank all screens
 during a full screen prompt, so that information shared with others can be
 hidden, because it is not updated and may be not be correct in a live
 update situation.

 Below is an example of using two boards, setting to 3 screens, full screen
 display is the middle screen, blank the other 2.

 Registry location:
 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\N50S397\Device0

 DisplayArray.H=3
 DisplayArray.V=1
 DisplayArray.FullScreenDisplay=1
 DisplayArray.BlankOnFullScreen=1

 If none of the parameters above are set the default is:
 H=0, V=0, FullScreenDisplay=0 and BlankOnFullScreen=1.

 Additional User Registry parameters:

 xOverlap and yOverlap control the amount of overlap from one screen to
 another this is mostly used to align projection screens.

 DisplayArray.xOverlap
 DisplayArray.yOverlap


 On some VIA chipset systems they change the video BIOS size from 40k to 64k and the
 driver cannot detect this condition.  Set NoBIOSCheck to 1
 
 DisplayArray.NoBIOSCheck

 To disable the software cursor set SoftwareCursor to 1.
 DisplayArray.SoftwareCursor

 To limit the size of the frame buffer in megabytes, set MemorySize to a value
 between 2 and 32. The example show a setting for 16 meg.

 DisplayArray.MemorySize=16
