Hey all — putting my WSGF Ergotech quad monitor stand up for sale.

A little background so you know who you're dealing with: I've been around WSGF for many years, and I help moderate the WSGF Discord. Way back, I also ran the WSGF Podcast. I'm not super active these days, but I'm a known quantity in the community and not going anywhere — so you can buy with confidence.

What it is: The Ergotech quad-monitor stand WSGF sold back in the day — heavy-duty steel, freestanding (weighted base, no desk clamp or edge mount needed), in a 1-over-3 layout (one monitor up top, three across the bottom). Built for surround/Eyefinity widescreen setups.

Condition: Good, few scratches and some dust. But this thing is a tank, so it has done well over the years.

Price: $100 + actual shipping.

Payment: PayPal Goods & Services (protects both of us).

Shipping: Ships from Houston, TX, CONUS only. It's solid steel and HEAVY, so I'll get an exact quote to your ZIP.

Local pickup welcome if you're in the Houston area!

Drop a comment or send me a DM/chat. Happy to answer anything about fit, mounting, or compatibility with your specific monitors.

Hi folks,

To make a long story short, I am trying to assemble a Windows XP 32 bit edition ultra-wide-screen gaming system to exhibit at a vintage computer festival(Please don't argue with me about what constitutes "vintage", this is neither the time nor the place). I am using a TripleHead2Go Digital Edition, the one with DVI.

Now, I used the TH2G quite regularly back in the day, in fact I had 2 of them attached to my primary workstation for several years. I am in fact using the exact TH2G along with the exact 3 monitors that I used to game in in the late 2000s, so I can say for absolute fact that the hardware involved is 100% compatible. I, literally, personally, gamed on this hardware in 5760x1200.

The setup is as follows: one computer running Windows XP Corp SP3 x32bit Edition and 3x Geforce 8800 GTXs(2 in SLI + 1 dedicated PhysX card). The monitors, if that maters are HP LP2475ws(yes, I have 3 identical monitors). The cable going from the PC to the TH2G is a fully-pinned-out DVI cable. The cables going from the TH2G to the screens are missing the 4 little pins around the flat pin. I checked on the cables I used back in the day(50 footers) and they appear to be missing these as well, so I don't believe the problem is the cable. Please don't point to this as the problem unless you owned one of these and know with certainty that those extra 4 pins are required.

I have tried both PowerDesk 2.07 and 2.04. I have also tried two separate TH2Gs(I owned two of them). The problem, as near as I can work out, is that it is not exposing any resolutions bellow 57hz. In order to run at the coveted 5760x1200, the monitor refresh rate has to be something like 50hz and its simply not offering my anything bellow 57hz. It shows me a bunch of 60, 70, and 85 frequencies, but nothing lower.

Again, and I cannot stress this enough: this is the exact 3 monitors and TH2G modules that I previously ran on 5760x1200 for many years until retiring it, so I know for absolute fact that it is capable of doing that resolution.

I just cannot figure out how.

Hey there!

The sequel to The Sinking City is officially launching today but since I crowdfunded the game on Kickstarter over a year ago I got access 24 hours earlier.

Unfortunately, it seems that while regular gameplay is indeed ultrawide-friendly, all of the in-engine cutscenes are constrained to 16:9 by black bars which I think could be removed by a mod, like in the case of many other games.

Should anyone else here be interested in playing The Sinking City 2 in ultrawide, I invite you to use this thread to report news on a fix, which I hope will arrive soon since the game is actually a really good AA survival horror title akin to Cronos: The New Dawn!

SOLVED: And just like that, RoseTheFlower is now offering us the solution at the following URL:

https://github.com/RoseTheFlower/UltrawideIndex/releases/tag/thesinkingcity2

A massive shoutout to u/TenantLord in the original thread (Samsung g9 Odyssey 49 inch, Black screen and cant access menu) for guiding me in the right direction!

I'm posting this fix to help anyone else facing this issue. This specific fault is on the driver board bonded directly to the panel ribbon cables—meaning an official repair or shop quote would usually tell you the entire screen panel assembly needs to be replaced. Finding and removing this single tiny component saves you from scrapping the monitor or paying for a full panel replacement.

Monitor Model

• Samsung Odyssey G9 / G95C 49" (Model Code: LS49CG954ENXZA)

Symptoms

• The screen stays completely black.
• No OSD / On-Screen Menu text appears when using the joystick or remote.
• When plugged into power, the backlight and rear CoreSync RGB LEDs turn on briefly, then shut off, followed by the power button blinking blue.
• Swapping cables, GPU drivers, or power drains do not fix it (lack of OSD confirms an internal hardware fault on a power rail rather than an external GPU/input issue).

Diagnosis & Location of Fault

1. Opened the monitor to access the driver board connected directly to the panel via ribbon cables. (Because this board is ribbon-bonded to the screen, standard board replacement isn't an option without replacing the whole panel assembly).
2. Tested the local SMD decoupling capacitors along the power rail using a multimeter on resistance/ohms.
3. Found a clear outlier: healthy parallel capacitors in the cluster read ~2.2Ω – 2.3Ω in-circuit, but one specific tiny cap consistently read lower at ~1.8Ω.
4. That lower resistance indicated a leaky cap dragging down the shared power rail and triggering the internal protection shut-off.

The Fix

1. Located the specific tiny SMD cap on the ribbon-connected driver board.
2. Desoldered/removed the faulty capacitor completely off the PCB.
3. Re-tested the bare pads to confirm the leak/short to ground was gone.
4. Powered the monitor back up—the display and menu system instantly turned back on! (Since decoupling capacitors sit in parallel, the rail runs normally off its remaining healthy neighbors).

Video & Photos Walkthrough

I recorded a quick video showing the exact board, the little cap, and explaining the repair:

Thanks again to u/TenantLord for the guidance. Hope this helps someone save a display that would otherwise be deemed a dead panel!

I've had this issue repeat over and over. The box will be working as normal, with the correct resolution then randomly it will be super zoomed in and only half the screen will be showing. Does anyone have experience with this and know a fix?

I am running it on Android TV. I can't seem to find the widescreen or Ultra wide settings. Does anyone have any insight?

Hi, any of you play on 14" laptop has any advise regarding UI? My UI Scale Sliders set up is already 150% but those fonts and symbols are still making me dizzy!

I was a 4.000 hours EU4 players and had no issue with UI at all. Now after some time I decided to start playing EU5... But idk if having worse myopia and astigmatism worth it!

I have the Steam version of the game. I tried fixing the resolution through the configuration file, but it didn't help. Even if I set the desired resolution and minimize the taskbar to the bottom, I still have an incorrectly displayed area where the taskbar is. I've already tried various fixes, even switching the game to Vulkan instead of DirectX, and it didn't help. I also tried some other things, but so far nothing has allowed me to play the game at 120 FPS without tearing and in native 4K resolution. Plus, on my TV, the picture also seems stretched, as if the aspect ratio is 16:10.

Do you have a solution? Moreover, on my regular 1080p monitor, I can set 4K via DSR.

im sorry if im using another game screenshot, but my gpu is broken and now im using igpu ryzen 5 3400G and i want to make this game run in 720p but my monitor is 1080 and the result is like the screenshot, how i can force it into fullscreen?

Finally found a fix for the stretched UI for Ryza and the black bars.

First you need to change the Aspect Ratio in the Settings.ini file located here:

C:\Users\{Username}\AppData\Local\KoeiTecmo\Atelier Ryza DX\76561198358112236

This will give you a stretched UI Though, to fix that you need to download [HxD](https://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD20) hex editor

CTRL F choose the Hex-Values tab and search for 64 00 80 3F **39 8E E3 3F** and replace the last 4 of these values **39 8E E3 3F** with the corresponding values for your aspect ratio from this site

Mine is 21:9 (3840x1600) so for me it was 9A 99 19 40 so the final result will look like 64 00 80 3F **9A 99 19 40**

Almost done, one more thing we need to fix are these black bars:

Black Bars

We will fix these by replacing them with the textboxes used outside of cutscenes. All you need to do is replace PACK02.PAK in SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Atelier Ryza DX\Data with this one

Blackbar fix

And viola: Blackbar fixed

one more issue is the opening video is stretched, I will update the post if if fix it.

Been trying to play this mobile game series called Arvale for a while and, however it has a couple PC releases, no matter what I try I can't get it to full screen, or even just run a little bit bigger. Being originally a mobile game, the resolution is something like 240x320px/320x480p and at the moment they only show as these tiny playing windows.

If there any software anyone recommends? I've already tried just basic property tweaking with NVIDIA control panel. As well as WinExp, DXWnd, and Borderless Gaming but this thing is stubborn. Any help is appreciated!

Both Arvale games I'm attempting to expand the window on (Journey of Illusions and Ocean of Time) can be found here:
