Sorry i wasnt clear. When Vista was introduced in included a new WDDM 1.0 
(Windows Display Driver Model), this now prevents users from using the 
Horizontal span that allowed us to mimic what TH2G does through multiple 
G/cards. Graphic drivers no longer support the feature because it has been 
disabled permanently by the new model architecture.

WDDM 1.0 Literally is a new architecture that was built for the WDM built 
into Vistas shiny desktop features (which i have mostly turned off) and is a 
death knell for wide screen gaming on a budget.
