Chapter 3 NVIDIA Control Panel Access Note: When needed, you can still access the NVIDIA display control panel pages through the Microsoft Display Properties Settings > Advanced option, as explained in Figure 3.7, "NVIDIA Display Menu Showing the GPU Page- Multiple Displays Connected" on page 30. Desktop Access 1 Right click on your Windows desktop to open the desktop menu. 2 If you do not see the menu item "NVIDIA Display," follow the procedure in "Adding NVIDIA Menu Options to the Windows Desktop Menu" on page 129 and then continue to the next step. 3 Click NVIDIA Display to see one or more of the descriptive EDID display names as shown in the (Figure 3.2). The display names that appear are based on the Figure 3.2 NVIDIA Display Options on the Windows Desktop Menu number and type of display(s) that are connected to your computer and whether you are in nView Dualview mode. These display names are also viewable from the nView Settings page (Figure 3.9). Note: For example, if you have multiple displays connected to an NVIDIA dual‐ display graphics card, in order to see both of your displays, you must be in nView Dualview mode. In nView Clone or Span mode, you can only see one display because Windows considers the displays as a "single" display in these modes. For details, see "About Display Numbering" on page 42 and "About Renaming Displays" on page 42. 4 Select the display for which you want to view the NVIDIA display control panel. During first use of the driver, the "default" page that opens is always the main NVIDIA GPU (Figure 3.7). On subsequent use, the actual NVIDIA control panel page that opens will be the page that was open when you last closed the NVIDIA control panel. Shortcut to Playing Video Files on Any Display You can now use the NVIDIA display selection shortcut feature to play video files on any selected display. 1 As shown in Figure 3.3, right click on a video file to open its context menu. 25 Quadro Workstation User's Guide
